Former Leeds United head coach Steve Evans has been offered the manager's job at Oldham Athletic.
Leeds showed Evans the door at the end of May, despite him surpassing the targets set for him upon his appointment by chairman Massimo Cellino.
He had been linked with the job at Peterborough United, while Nottingham Forest were also mooted to be an option for the Scottish tactician.
But it could be Oldham that Evans ends up taking charge of as according to the Yorkshire Evening Post he has been offered the job at the League One side.
Evans is now set for talks with Oldham next week as he looks to decide whether to take the post.

The 52-year-old led Crawley Town to the Conference title in 2011, along with setting the side up for promotion from League Two to League One in 2012, while he then guided Rotherham United on the same path a year later.
Evans then took the Millers up to the Championship just the following year, completing a remarkable run of promotions in four seasons as a manager.
