Exclusive: Aston Villa preparing to sack Steve Bruce



Aston Villa are preparing to sack manager Steve Bruce. Villa have made the decision to dismiss the 57-year-old after a torrid run of one victory from ten games, in a major move by the Championship club’s new owners.

Bruce is close to completing two years in charge but Tuesday’s chaotic 3-3 draw with Preston is expected to be his final match at Villa Park.

Villa supporters have turned on Bruce after a dismal start to the campaign and one irate fan even hurled a cabbage at him before Tuesday’s game kicked off.

Christian Purslow, the chief executive, had always intended to give Bruce until October’s international break to mount a revival but results and performances have been a huge disappointment.

Despite financial restrictions Bruce still managed to sign Chelsea’s Tammy Abraham and Everton’s Yannick Bolasie before the summer transfer window closed.

But the improvement in form has not been forthcoming and now Bruce will be axed by new owners Nassef Sawiris and Wes Edens.

There could be confirmation later on Wednesday

Aston Villa have sacked manager Steve Bruce after two years in charge.

Villa are 12th in the Championship but have only won one of their past nine league matches and drew 3-3 with bottom club Preston on Tuesday.

The 57-year-old had been under increasing pressure from Villa supporters, with one fan throwing a cabbage at him before Tuesday's game.

He led the club to the Championship play-off final last season, which they lost to Fulham at Wembley.

Bruce, who leaves Villa exactly two years to the day since his predecessor Roberto di Matteo was sacked, is the first manager to lose his job in England's second tier this season.

Breaking: Thierry Henry and John Terry set to be managerial double act at Villa (Terry as No2). More on @MailSport by @DominicKing_DM ... will Terry carry on playing? Not yet known. High profile rookie pairing, very interesting #avfc

There is indeed interest in Brendan Rodgers by @AVFCOfficial. No approach yet. Thierry Henry also in frame. Rui Faria as well I am told.

Thierry Henry officially turned down Aston Villa's offer to take over as manager late last night. He's one of two or three Monaco are now considering #avfc
