According to widespread reports in England on Wednesday, Aston Villa are ready to break club record in their attempt to sign Liverpool striker Peter Crouch in January.
The Villans had signed attacker Ashley Young for club record £9.65 million from Watford during January this year.
Crouch, who has been a target for speculation since end of last season with Newcastle United linked to the England international, had been largely unsuccessful when he was with Villa from 2002-2004 scoring only six goals in 47 Premiership appearances.
He was then sold to Southampton, from where after a year he joined Liverpool.
Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez has stressed time and again that Crouch firmly remains in his plans and he is not for sale.
