Aston Villa and West Ham United could discuss the possibility of Jhon Duran sitting out the clash between the two clubs at the start of next season, according to ExWHUemployee.
Talks between the two clubs have continued as West Ham try to take Duran to the London Stadium.
Aston Villa’s asking price for Duran is so far one that West Ham are reluctant to meet, but there could be movement from each party in talks.
West Ham are due to play host to Aston Villa in their Premier League opener next month.
