Released Villa striker Harewood to turn out for Blackpool

Off contract Aston Villa striker Marlon Harewood is set to feature for Blackpool tomorrow.

The Blackpool Gazette says Harewood could make his Blackpool debut against Hibernian on Sunday.

Harewood is a free agent after his three-year deal at Villa expired and Martin O'Neill decided against offering him a fresh contract.

The Londoner spent three months on loan at Championship top dogs Newcastle United last term, scoring five goals in 15 games, and has recovered from an injury which ruled him out of the second half of last season.

It is all about agreeing wages with Harewood, but if a deal can be reached there is no doubt he would be an ideal replacement for Ben Burgess.
