Rodgers nearly guided Liverpool to a shock title win in 2013/14, and also impressed hugely during his time in charge of Swansea City.

According to the Daily Mirror, he is now being looked at by Villa as they continue to struggle under current manager Tim Sherwood, who only narrowly avoided relegation last term before being thrashed 4-0 by Arsenal in the FA Cup final.
