Agents have offered Alan Pardew to IFK Gothenburg.
IFK have been seeking a new coaching appointment after the departure of Mikael Stahre.
And Expressen says former Newcastle and Crystal Palace manager Pardew has been offered to the Swedes.
Pardew recently said: "Maybe I will coach a club in Sweden one day.
"Vsters is my wife's hometown. Allsvenskan has grown enormously in recent years. Everyone involved has done a fantastic job there. Djurgrdens IF, Malm FF and IFK Gteborg are the clubs I most associate with in my mind as the big clubs. So who knows?"
