Aston Villa are seeking to send away striker Wesley.
The Express & Star says the arrival of Danny Ings for an initial £25million has seen the once club-record signing fall further down the pecking order.
Wesley has made only three brief substitute appearances since returning in April from a serious knee injury which kept him sidelined for nearly 16 months.
He has since endured a difficult pre-season, which included a red card for violent conduct during Villa's 2-0 friendly defeat at Stoke.
It is possible he could now depart before the transfer window closes at the end of the month, most likely on loan.
