Crystal Palace's search for a successor to Sam Allardyce may be nearing its conclusion after reports that the London club have offered their vacant head coaching position to former Ajax and Inter manager Frank De Boer.

Roy Hodgson, Sean Dyche and Mauricio Pellegrino are among the managers to have been linked with a move to Selhurst Park but De Boer has emerged as the red-hot favourite after seemingly winning the race to replace Allardyce.

De Boer had also been linked with the vacancy at Southampton, who now appear to be turning their attention to Pellegrino.

Saints parted company with Claude Puel last Wednesday but are being strongly linked with a move for Pellegrino, who has been backed in to odds-on prices to fill the St Mary's Stadium vacancy.

Leicester tied up a reported £17m deal for Harry Maguire last week and are now reportedly looking to bolster their attack with a swoop for Manchester City forward Kelechi Iheanacho.

Betway are offering odds on the Nigerian's next club and make the Foxes 4-6 favourites. West Brom are a 7-1 chance and Everton can be backed at 10-1.
