The 21-year-old forward from River Plate – the Argentinian club Villa signed Juan Pablo Angel from seven years ago – has been linked with a £5m switch to the West Midlands.
But O'Neill said: "It's news to me. I think we'd be looking a little closer to home."
Villa, who want £3.5m for wantaway striker Luke Moore, are scouring the market for a replacement if the 21-year-old leaves.
O'Neill has been linked wit Reading's Kevin Doyle and it's likely his target will fit the young, hungry profile of previous signings.
