Aston Villa will reportedly have to hand Paul Lambert a £10m compensation package after sacking him as their manager.
The Scot lost his job at Villa Park on Wednesday following a run of 10 games without a win in the Premier League.
The former Colchester United and Norwich City boss had been in charge of the Midlands outfit since June 2012.
Lambert signed a new four-year deal in September, which was believed to be worth nearly £3m a year.
According to the Daily Mirror, Lambert's new deal, like his previous one, did not include a compensation clause.
The report adds that the club will now have to pay up the contract in full as a result.
Lambert took charge of 101 competitive games during his time with Villa.
