Steve Bruce has reportedly resigned as Sheffield Wednesday manager.
The 58-year-old - who was previously manager of the Magpies' rivals Sunderland - looks set to replace Rafa Benitez at Newcastle United.
Times journalist Paul Joyce tweeted: "Steve Bruce is understood to have resigned as Sheffield Wednesday manager this morning, along with assistants Steve Agnew and Stephen Clemence.
"All three put resignations in writing.
"Newcastle have made an offer of compensation to Sheffield Wed - but it is still to be accepted."
Bruce took charge of Wednesday's 3-1 pre-season friendly win against Lincoln over the weekend in which he was confronted by a furious fan.
