Former Fulham boss Chris Coleman is in line for Wales job.

The Guardian says Coleman has emerged as the clear frontrunner to take over as Wales manager and his appointment could be confirmed in time for him to take charge of the national team against Costa Rica in the memorial game for Gary Speed at the end of next month.

Coleman is trying to resolve a contractual dispute with Larissa, after he resigned from his post last weekend after becoming exasperated with the financial problems at the Greek club.
