Villa agreed to a £5million deal with the relegated Hatters to make the deal happen.
The Sun revealed last month that Unai Emery’s men were in talks with the 30-year-old.
Manchester United were also said to be monitoring Barkley, who won 33 England caps from 2013-2019.
Barkley’s one campaign with Luton after arriving on a free transfer from Nice was a huge success.
The former Everton and Chelsea man notched five goals and four assists in 32 Prem games for Rob Edwards‘ side.
And many pundits reckon his form pushed him to the brink of a Three Lions’ recall.
