Former Aston Villa boss Steven Gerrard is thought to be interested in a return to management, and has reportedly picked Leeds United as his next destination.
According to a report from Football Insider, the ex-England and Liverpool midfielder would be "very keen" on the Leeds job, as their hunt for Jesse Marsch's replacement goes on.
The American was relieved of his duties last week, with his side just a point above the relegation zone, although the hunt for his successor has thus far proved fruitless.
Leeds reportedly want Gerrard
Leeds are now thought to be considering Steven Gerrard as an option after their top targets all rejected the chance to take over.
First-choice replacement Carlos Corberan decided to sign a new 18-month deal with West Brom on Monday, while Rayo Vallecano's Andoni Iraola also elected to stay with the Liga high-flyers after a delegation failed to convince him to switch.
The most recent rejection came from Feyenoord coach Arne Slot, who committed his future to the Eredivisie club in a press conference on Friday. With options thinning, Leeds may well turn to Gerrard, who was sacked as Aston Villa manager in November 2021 following six defeats in 11 league games.
Big picture for Leeds
While the hunt continues, interim boss Michael Skubala will remain at the helm, as his side host Manchester United at Elland Road on Sunday looking to build on the positive result in mid-week.
Leeds sit outside the Premier League relegation zone by just one point after spending big to overhaul their squad this season, with a reported outlay of £129million on no fewer than 10 new arrivals.
