Jonathan Kodjia has joined from Bristol City in an £11m deal which might rise to £15m.
The goalscorer has put his moniker on a four-year contract.
Villa boss Roberto Di Matteo said “We are really pleased to have secured the services of Jonathan.
“He is a proven goalscorer and hopefully he’ll play an important part in what we hope will be a successful season for the club.”
Kodjia is an Ivory Coast international who joined City for around £2m from Angers last summer.
City reckon the deal is worth more than four times their previous record sale – when Ade Akinbiyi joined Wolves in September 1999 for £3.5m – and includes a sell-on clause.
