Ralf Rangnick is being linked with the vacant manager's job at Tottenham.
Spurs are actively seeking a new manager after last week's dismissal of Jose Mourinho.
The Telegraph says Rangnick is firming as one of the favoured candidates for the Spurs board.
In addition to the 62-year-old, Ajax Amsterdam coach Erik ten Hag and England boss Gareth Southgate are on the shortlist.
Rangnick, formerly of RB Leipzig and Hoffenheim, is a free agent and came close to joining AC Milan last season.
