Birmingham City striker Cameron Jerome can see manager Alex McLeish eventually moving on.
McLeish was linked with Liverpool during the summer.
Jerome said: "He has done a magnificent job since he has been here. The way he has brought Birmingham on, on a shoestring budget really, and pushed us into mid-table.
"He is an up-and-coming manager. That's why the likes of Liverpool and other teams will come knocking when they are looking for a new man. He's proven his worth."
