Kewell in line to replace sacked Maamria at Oldham

Oldham Athletic are eyeing off Harry Kewell as new manager after the sacking of Dino Maamria.

The Daily Mail says Maamria was relieved of his duties late on Friday evening after 11 months in charge at Boundary Park, having led the Latics to 19th place in League Two before the coronavirus pandemic halted the season.

And Oldham are set to move for former Liverpool and Leeds United winger Kewell as Maamria's successor.

The Boundary Park role would be the 41-year-old's third role in charge of a Football League club, having had short-term stints in charge of Crawley Town and Notts County in 2017 and 2018.
