Paul Lambert has been appointed as the new Blackburn Rovers manager to replace Gary Bowyer.
Blackburn has appointed former Aston Villa boss Paul Lambert as the club's new manager.
The Championship side sacked Gary Bowyer on Tuesday after he had guided it to only three wins in 16 Championship games this term, leaving the team in 16th place.
Lambert has been out of work since being sacked by Villa back in February as the Premier League side struggled in his third season in charge.
The former Borussia Dortmund and Celtic player will be assisted by former West Brom manager Alan Irvine, though the length of the contracts was not disclosed.
