Aston Villa have agreed a deal to sign Watford forward Ismaila Sarr.
The fee agreed between the two clubs is understood to be worth more than ?25m plus add-ons.
Sarr was not in the Watford squad for their Championship match at Preston North End on Saturday, which finished goalless.
Watford manager Rob Edwards said his absence was injury related – and nothing to do with a potential move.
Sarr has scored 25 goals in 95 Watford appearances since joining the club from Rennes in 2019. The Senegal international scored five goals in the Premier League last season.
