McLeish Keane to land LA Galaxy striker Robbie on two-month loan

LA Galaxy striker Robbie Keane is a shock target for Aston Villa.



Keane could follow Thierry Henry and Landon Donovan and make the temporary switch back to the Premier League from the MLS.



The US top flight is currently in its off season and doesn't start again until late March, meaning its leading names would be available to join European clubs.

Henry is on the verge of completing a move back to Arsenal, while Keane's team-mate Donovan will make his second Everton bow this week.



And Keane, who is desperate to maintain his form and fitness ahead the Republic of Ireland's Euro 2012 campaign, could be next if Villa can agree a deal and substantial insurance package with Galaxy and the MLS, according to the Daily Mirror.



Alex McLeish is keen to add some more firepower to his ranks after a mere 22 goals in the first half of the season.



The Scot maintains an interest in Bobby Zamora, but fears over the Fulham man's fitness has pushed McLeish towards Keane.
