Donald said: "On the manager front, we’ve agreed a deal this morning, we’re just drawing up contracts now. Hopefully there’ll be news soon.

"I’m absolutely jumping up and down [with excitement]."

The new Sunderland owner went on to confirm Chris Coleman would not be returning.

Jack Ross is the odds-on favourite for the job and as the Echo revealed on Sunday, he has been the new regime's top target for the post.
