The striker is set to jet into Birmingham for talks over the weekend while the clubs haggle over a fee.

On Tuesday, Danish side Aalborg gave permission for the 22-year-old to travel to England and a deal could be done by the start of next week.

Villa could get the 6ft 5in hitman for around £2million and Helenius is desperate not to miss out on the chance of playing in the Premier League.

He said: "I hope AaB will show enough co-operation and not demand too much money for me. The market is not ready for big transfers at the moment.
