Aston Villa Manager, Remi Garde has left the club on mutual
consent after four months of the Premier League’s bottom club. He will be
replaced by Eric Black, who takes over as interim manager.
The 49-year-old Frenchman replaced Tim Sherwood on a
three-and-a-half-year deal in November, but departs after six successive
defeats.
His last game in charge was a 1-0 defeat at Swansea City on
19 March, which leaves Villa 12 points from safety with seven games remaining.
Villa won only two of their 20 league games during Garde’s
tenure.
A statement on the club’s website read: "Manager, Rémi
Garde, has today left Aston Villa Football Club by mutual consent.
The Club would like to place on record its sincere thanks
to Rémi for all his efforts during a difficult period and wish him well in the
future. Eric Black will take over as acting manager until the Club appoints a
new manager. There will be no further comment from the Club at this stage," the
statement read.
