Roy Keane is reportedly being considered by the Birmingham City board to take over at St Andrew's following the departure of Chris Hughton.
The former Manchester United captain has been open about his desire to return to management following his two-year stint at Ipswich Town.
The Blues are believed to have put the Irishman on their wishlist along with Lee Clark, Alan Curbishley and Phil Brown, according to The Express.
Hughton made the decision to leave the Championship club for Norwich City last week.
