Premiership: Villa agree fee for Balaban

Aston Villa have agreed a fee with Dynamo Zagreb for Croatian international Bosko Balaban.

The fee was not disclosed, but it is thought to be £6m.

The club now has to agree personal terms with Balaban, who also needs a work permit.

The 22-year-old was withdrawn from Dynamo's Uefa Cup squad yesterday leaving him free to play for Villa in the competition.
