Former Manchester United striker Ruud van Nistelrooy is favourite for the top job at PSV Eindhoven.
The 45-year-old is currently in charge of Jong PSV, the club's reserve side, having coached the Under-18s for three years up until last summer.
He is the first choice candidate to replace outgoing PSV first team boss Roger Schmidt, says ED.
Schmidt has confirmed that he will leave his post at the end of the season after failing to agree a new contract in Eindhoven. The club are currently second in the Eredivisie table, just two points behind leaders Ajax.
Van Nistelrooy reportedly has the backing of Marcel Brands, the ex-Everton director of football who will become PSV's new chief executive in the summer.
