Peter Taylor is being linked with the Blackburn Rovers job.
Rovers remain without a permanent replacement for Henning Berg despite global advisor Shebby Singh stating his intent to have a new man in by New Year's Day.
The Championship club have enjoyed back-to-back wins under caretaker boss Gary Bowyer.
Former England under-21 boss Taylor boasts a wealth of experience with a number of Football League clubs and is available after leaving his position as Bahrain's head coach in October.
