Exeter City director of football Steve Perryman is due return home today after spending more than a month in hospital with a heart problem.

The 60-year-old former Tottenham player was taken ill during Exeter's final game of the season against Sheffield United on May 5.

He underwent emergency surgery followed by a long spell in intensive care at Plymouth's Derriford Hospital.

Perryman has been director of football at Exeter since 2003.
