It is claimed by the Daily Mail that the striker is in talks over a season-long loan move with his chances of first-team football at Villa looking extremely remote.
The Brazilian has had three spells out on loan after returning from a cruciate ligament injury having played for Brugge, Internacional and Levante.
Now he could be set for a switch to the second tier with the £22m signing looking to kick start his career again in England.
Moraes has made just 26 appearances for Villa since signing from Brugge in 2019. But his progress was seriously derailed when the 26-year-old suffered a severe cruciate knee ligament injury following a challenge by Ben Mee during a game at Burnley in 2020.
He eventually played again for Villa 480 days later when he came on as a sub against West Brom.
