Colorado Rapids striker Omar Cummings impresses Villa
Cummings played under ex-Liverpool winger John Barnes for Jamaica
Colorado Rapids striker Omar Cummings has impressed on trial at Aston Villa, according to manager Gerard Houllier.
The Villa boss will make a decision "soon" on whether to take the 28-year-old on a short-term loan deal.
Jamaica international Cummings, who was Rapids' leading striker in 2010, could link up with Villa until March when the Major League Soccer season begins.
Houllier stated: "I see Omar getting better with every training session. I will make a decision about him soon."
Cummings has been training with Aston Villa since 31 December and Houllier said that a work permit would be needed were he to be offered a loan deal.
