Dick Advocaat is expected to leave Sunderland after their clash with West Ham United.

The Mirror says Advocaat is set to quit as Sunderland boss after tomorrow's game with West Ham.

The Black Cats are bracing ­themselves for their manager walking out on Saturday and have made Burnley boss Sean Dyche the No1 target to replace him.

It is by no means certain that Dyche – who was offered the job in summer before Advocaat decided to stay – would go to the Stadium of Light.

But there are growing fears the Dutchman could quit after Sunderland 's game with West Ham.
