Steve Bruce told SkySports that he entered talks with Aston Villa to discuss a potential managerial role: "I've had a chat with Villa and that's as far as it has gone - he said - They said they were in a process, which you have to respect, so I'm hoping I hear something this week".
"It would be a terrific job, I'm sure everyone would agree Villa are one of the big clubs of this country and they need a little bit of turning around at the moment. But they have huge support and they're a big, big club so hopefully I hear something this week."
