Daniel Sturridge will reportedly rule out a move to Aston Villa this summer, with the forward keen to qualify for the Champions League with Trabzonspor.
The former Liverpool striker joined the Turkish side on a three-year contract last summer, and has registered four goals and four assists in 11 league appearances thus far.
Trabzonspor currently sit one point behind league leaders Istanbul Basaksehir with a game in hand, having won four and drawn one of their previous five games.
According to Fanatik, Sturridge is still a target for Dean Smith's side, and may be open to reassessing his options at the end of the season having failed to hold down a regular place in Huseyin Cimsir's side.
However, the 30-year-old will allegedly have the chance to extend his contract with the Turkish side for a further year when his current deal expires at the end of the 2020-21 season.
