Super Eagles hopeful Noah Bazee missed an opportunity to display his wares to representatives of EFL Championship side Aston Villa last Saturday.

Scouts in Attendance via Twitter has claimed that Aston Villa director of football Steve Round and scout Tony Coton were believed to have watched the 2 Bundesliga match between Hannover and Union Berlin.

Hannover striker Bazee was not considered for the game after worsening his knee injury while training with the Super Eagles in London, and also missed the following game against Nürnberg.

Speculation is rife that the 20-year-old may depart the Lower Saxony club in the summer as he has yet to sign the new contract that he has been offered.

Aston Villa pay the wages of striker Gabriel Agbonlahor and young goalkeeper Emmanuel Idem.
