Steve Bruce is interested in Southampton striker Sam Gallagher.

At this morning’s press conference he said: “Every club in the Championship has been linked with him.

“It’s something we’re looking at us.

“He interests us yes.”

Villa need a new striker following the injury to Scott Hogan. Jonathan Kodjia is also out injured and loan options are under consideration.



Gallagher is available for loan.

The 21-year-old has not featured for Southampton this season and boss Mauricio Pellegrino is open to letting him leave.

Wolves have reportedly had a bid turned down for Gallagher and Gary Rowett's Derby are reported to have joined the race.
