However, the 47-year-old will be placing loyalties aside with Villa still chasing play-off positions.

“I will have my game-head on,” he told reporters. “I am employed by Aston Villa and it’s the club I love.

“I want to go there and get a good result.

“I know a lot about that club, the players and the staff. I loved my time there, they are great people and I’m looking forward to it immensely.

“But I have a job to do here and we must make sure we show that spirit again.”
