Damien Comolli could be set for a return to English football with Aston Villa, according to reports from the Daily Telegraph.
Owner Randy Lerner is believed to be in advanced talks with a Chinese consortium over the sale of Villa this summer and it is believed that the prospective new owners are already lining up a move for Nigel Pearson as the new manager of the club.
Now according to further reports, it has been revealed that the Chinese group will also look to appoint former Liverpool director of football Comolli as the new technical director at Villa Park if their prospective takeover of the club is successful.
