Villa boss Paul Lambert to receive Randy Lerner's summer itinerary
ASTON VILLA boss Paul Lambert will discover what the summer has in store for him today.
The Scot travelled to New York yesterday alongside chief executive Paul Faulkner for urgent talks with American owner Randy Lerner, who is selling the club.
Lambert is expected to find out about Lerner’s timescales to relinquish control of the Villa Park side he has been chairman at since 2006, along with initial budgets for pre-season.
Lambert has publicly spoken at his wish to remain at Villa Park whatever happens this summer but the decision may be taken out of his hands if Lerner is able to complete a rapid sale of the club.
