Sol Campbell left his previous role at Macclesfield Town by mutual consent in AugustSol Campbell is expected to be at Southend’s clash with Doncaster at Roots Hall on Tuesday as he stands on the verge of becoming their new manager, Sky Sports News understands. Southend have undergone a search for a new manager since Kevin Bond resigned after they suffered six consecutive league defeats at the beginning of the season. Sky Sports News reported earlier in October Campbell had been interviewed for the vacant managerial role at the Essex club. The third-tier side's negotiations with Henrik Larsson broke down earlier this month, despite Southend agreeing a deal with the Swede to bring him to Roots Hall as their new manager. Southend sit 22nd in League One, after 10 defeats, one win and two draws in 13 matches.
