Crystal Palace aim to hold talks today with Wales coach Chris Coleman about the manager's post.
The London Evening Standard says Palace made their first approach to the Wales boss last night.
The timing of Palace's move is key as Coleman is considering an offer of a new contract from the Football Association of Wales.
Although Coleman is proud to lead his national team, he wants to return to the Premier League and the chance to do that with Palace, who he played for between 1991-95, appeals to him.
