Aston Villa are yet to receive any offers for in-demand striker Christian Benteke, according to reports.
The Belgian international apparently has a £32.5m release clause in his contract and has been linked with Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur this summer.
But Sky Sports understands that the 24-year-old has not yet been the subject of any bids and that Villa are still hopeful of getting him to sign a fresh contract without a buy-out option.

However, Benteke, who scored 15 goals for Villa in all competitions last season, does not intend to sign a new deal with the West Midlands club as he has set his sights on Champions League football.
Leading bookmaker SkyBet make Liverpool the 7/4 favourites to sign Benteke before the transfer deadline on September 3rd. Spurs are available at 4/1 and Chelsea and Manchester United 5/1 and 6/1 respectively.
