Diego Maradona is tipped for a role with Blackburn Rovers.
The Telegraph says former Argentina manager Maradona is keen to take a Premier League job, but he may be offered a technical director or ambassadorial role at Blackburn as the new owners seek to implement a new structure with a figurehead manager, a first team coach and director of football.
Venky's chairwoman Anuradha Desai said: "We thought about Maradona as a coach after we took over. Talks were at the initial stage then, but there is no development on that front yet.
"For now, the current coach will be the manager until the end of the season. There is no question of signing anyone for such a short time."
