​Garde to be unveiled as Aston Villa boss

Aston Villa are set to unveil former Lyon boss Remi Garde as the Premier League club's new manager, according to reports.

Sky Sports is reporting Garde will be at White Hart Lane for Villa's clash with Tottenham on Monday night.

It is understood the Frenchman will watch the fixture from the stands, with current caretaker manager Kevin MacDonald taking charge on the sideline.

Garde will reportedly sign a three-and-a-half year deal with the Claret and Blue, although he will be without his preferred Gerald Baticle and preferred fitness coach Robert Duverne, who were unable to secure a release from their respective clubs Lyon and Metz.
