Everton boss David Moyes is a target for struggling Aston Villa.
The Mail on Sunday says Villa will put Everton manager Moyes top of their short list this summer, with Gerard Houllier set to leave even if the club survive in the Premier League.
Chief executive Paul Faulkner said their "best chance of staying up is with Gerard", but they have reserve-team boss Kevin McDonald available as a caretaker if results continue to slide.
Moyes has expressed frustration over the lack of spending power he has at Everton.
