That is according to journalist Fabrizio Romano, who has reported that Barkley is set to cost in the region of £5 million.
The report goes onto claim that an agreement is expected to be reached with Barkley and his representatives at the 'beginning of July'.
Barkley previously spent the 2020/21 season on loan at Villa - scoring three goals and setting up one more in 24 appearances under Dean Smith.
The former Everton, Chelsea and OGC Nice star enjoyed a bright campaign during Luton's solitary season in the top-flight despite suffering immediate relegation back to the Championship.
He scored five goals and contributed six assists in 37 appearances across all competitions for the Hatters.
