Aston Villa have made a move for giant Serbian striker Nikola Zigic, according to Valencia.

Zigic looks set to be on his way out of Valencia with the club prepared to offload the 6ft 7in hit-man.

The Serbian international has been informed he does not figure in new Valencia coach Unai Emery's plans after failing to establish himself at La Mestalla.

Zigic has been linked with a move to England for some time and now Villa are reported to have made a firm offer for the former Racing Santander star.

Valencia sporting director Juan Sanchez claims Villa have made an offer for Zigic and that the player will make a decision on his future in the next few days.

"The player and his agent know about the offer and we expect them to make a decision in the coming days," Sanchez is quoted as saying in the Sunday Mirror.
