Chase on for Aston Villa star

Leeds and Leicester are leading the chase for Aston Villa's Isaiah Osbourne, skysports.com understands. The 23-year-old midfielder has failed to feature under Gerard Houllier this term and is now looking for a loan switch. Osbourne has impressed during previous spells in the Championship with Nottingham Forest and Middlesbrough, and now a number of clubs are looking to take him. Skysports.com understands up to half-a-dozen clubs are wanting to take Osbourne, with Leeds and Leicester heading the chase. Osbourne's current deal is due to expire in the summer, but he realises a move away from Villa Park is required to kick-start his career.
