Walter Zenga is being linked with Steve Evans' job at Leeds United.
Leeds chairman Massimo Cellino still has plans to dump Evans at the end of the season.
Talks with former Ballon d'Or winner Fabio Cannavaro fell through over financial terms, but TMW says Cellino is now ready to turn to Zenga.
The Inter Milan legend is a free agent after his sacking by Sampdoria earlier this season.
Italian experts see Zenga as a better bet for Cellino at Leeds than the inexperienced Cannavaro.
