Birmingham City captain Liam Ridgewell is urging manager Steve Bruce to stay.
"It shows the gaffer is doing a good job and people are looking at him. But from the players' point of view he is training us, and it would be sad to see him go," he told Sky Sports News.
"We hope to keep doing a good job, and hopefully Carson Yeung will see that and keep him as boss.
"He has been here a long time and we would be disappointed to see him go."
