Sol Campbell to snub Aston Villa for Sven-Goran Eriksson link-up


25.08.09

Sol Campbell will join League Two Notts County after rejecting the chance to stay in the Premier League with Aston Villa.

The former Portsmouth centre-back will team up with his one-time England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson at Meadow Lane, where he will take up a player-coach role.

Campbell, 34, has undergone a medical and will complete the formalities of his move today.

The defender has been a free agent since his Pompey contract expired this summer and received approaches from Villa and a host of other clubs including Ajax.
