Emiliano Buendia<\/a> and Morgan Rogers<\/a> both scored for the Lions, while centre-forward Ollie Watkins came on from the bench in the second half.<\/p>\n

The Telegraph<\/a> claim that Villa are keen on signing Abraham, who is on loan at Besiktas<\/a>, though the Turkish club will reportedly find it difficult to finance a permanent deal if they trigger their obligation-to-buy.<\/p>\n
