Blackburn have accepted an offer of £2million from Aston Villa for goalkeeper Brad Friedel.

The veteran American shot-stopper has been at Ewood Park for the past eight years but he told the club earlier this month that he wanted to move on.

Manchester City had also been linked with Friedel but Villa have now taken a big stride towards signing him.

Bringing in a new, experienced keeper has been a priority for Martin O'Neill this summer, with a deal having been agreed for Friedel's compatriot Brad Guzan.

Scott Carson was O'Neill's first choice between the posts last term but he returned to Liverpool at the end of his loan spell and has since joined West Bromwich Albion.

Villa will now be hoping to finalise the transfer of Friedel, who has been one of the most consistent keepers in the Premier League over the last decade.

Friedel's departure would leave a huge void at Blackburn and manager Paul Ince is likely to turn his attention to finding a replacement as quickly as possible.

He's been brilliant but at his age surely he's set to decline. Short term fix, but Villa need to use funds to boost their numbers big time.

he will be used as a mentor for brad guzan to help him adapt to england and the premier league...

he is a solid and consistant keeper, and i will be delighted to have him between the sticks, if he signs...

Is there any news on Guzan's work permit application?
You know what you will get with Friedel and will do the job most definately for this season at least, if not next too.

One of the best keepers in the league. He might only have a couple of seasons left in him but he is a superb keeper, never gets injured and makes very few mistakes.
