Aston Villa manager Gerard Houllier has been admitted to hospital, the BBC understands.
It is thought he was taken to hospital in Birmingham during the night.
He is understood to have spoken to the club's chief executive Paul Faulkner and his condition is said to be comfortable.
Assistant manager Gary McAllister will take Thursday's training session. The club is expected to release an official statement later.
Houllier is expected to remain in hospital for a couple of days and it is anticipated McAllister will take charge of the team on Saturday for their game against Stoke at Villa Park.
Houllier had major surgery after a heart attack in 2001
WorldwideFootball would like to wish Gerard all the best and a speedy recovery and hope to see him back on the touchline soon.
