Aston Villa are ready to sell Finn Azaz.
On-loan with Plymouth Argyle, Azaz is the subject of a 2.5m offer from Middlesbrough.
The Express & Star says Villa are prepared to cash in and could do so in the next 24 hours.
As such, Azaz could be registered by Boro in time to face Villa in the FA Cup Third Round.
Boro host Villa on Saturday.
