Aston Villa and West Bromwich Albion are interested in signing Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Etienne Capoue on loan, according to reports.

The 26-year-old is understood to be keen to play more first-team football, and he was left out of the Spurs squad which beat West Brom 3-0 on Saturday.

The Daily Mail claims that both Midlands clubs have made enquiries for the Frenchman and could secure a deal before Monday's transfer deadline.

Capoue joined from Toulouse in 2013 and has made 11 Premier League starts this season.
