The Guardian:
Sven-Goran Eriksson will finally be confirmed as Manchester City's new manager today when Thaksin Shinawatra declares he is in a position to de-list the club from the Stock Exchange.
Eriksson has been waiting for Thaksin, the former prime minister of Thailand, to build a 75% stake in the club before an official announcement could be made. The former England head coach, out of the game since the World Cup finished a year ago, will sign a three-year contract and his first game will be a friendly at Doncaster Rovers tomorrow week.
