Villa boss has talks with Lerner about relegation

Remi Garde has revealed that he has spoken to Aston Villa owner, Randy Lerner about the prospect of relegation and what it would mean for him and the club.

Garde revealed in an interview with the French media outlet, L’Equipe that he spoke with Lerner about questions he wanted answering about the project at Villa Park. He was told by Lerner that the ‘project was still on’ even if Villa are relegated to the Championship and that the Villa chairman ‘counted on’ Garde to lead Villa whatever happens.

“To go down, it is not the wish of anyone, but if we are in the Championship and the club still wants me, I will start again with Villa. The answer is yes.”

The Villa boss revealed he was working in the ‘medium term’ as well as now. He went on to say that he ‘would want to stay’ going on to say how he feels that ‘everyone’ supports him.

Although relegation is not ideal for Villa Garde said that the club could “reconstruct the foundations of a big club quite quickly”.
