Gary O'Neil and Chris Wilder are in the running for the vacant Leicester City job according to reports.
The Foxes sacked former boss Ruud van Nistelrooy following relegation from the Premier League and are now looking for a new manager ahead of the 2025/26 Championship season.
According to journalist John Percy of The Telegraph, former Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder – who led his team to a play-off final last season – and former Bournemouth and Wolverhampton Wanderers head coach Gary O'Neil are both on the shortlist.
As well as the pair of Wilder and O'Neil, Sheffield Wednesday manager Danny Röhl and Sean Dyche are among the names linked with the role.
Leicester City are aiming to announce a new manager by the end of the week.
