Aston Villa have agreed an £8m deal to sign Liverpool transfer target Tom Heaton this summer.
According Telegraph journalist John Percy, Villa have ironed out a fee with Burnley, which was agreed on Tuesday night.

The Reds have been linked with a move for the Burnley shot-stopper, but Villa now look poised to bring him to Villa Park.
Heaton only played 19 times last season for Burnley after returning from an injury which saw him feature in four Premier League games for the club in the 2017/18 campaign.
The England international did, however, impress in the final months of last season and Liverpool appeared to be interested in bringing him in to potentially replace Simon Mignolet.
Alisson is Liverpool’s number one, but Jurgen Klopp wants a suitable number two behind him.
