Tim Sherwood 'in advanced Aston Villa talks'

Aston Villa are reportedly in advanced negotiations with Tim Sherwood over the vacant managerial role.

Tim Sherwood is said to be in advanced discussions with Aston Villa and has emerged as the frontrunner for the vacant position with the Premier League strugglers.

Since Paul Lambert was sacked earlier this week, Sherwood has been mooted as a possible candidate along with the likes of Gareth Southgate and Glenn Hoddle.

However, The Telegraph claims that the West Midlands outfit are edging closer to a deal for the ex-Tottenham Hotspur coach.

It is thought that the Villains are keen to make a quick appointment as they look to salvage their faltering Premier League campaign.

Villa owner Randy Lerner is also reported to be looking for a long-term appointment rather than a short-term fix.
