Burnley are closing in on the appointment of former England midfielder Scott Parker as their new manager.
Parker, 43, has been out of work since March 2023, having been sacked by Belgian club Club Bruges after winning only two of his 12 games in charge.
After leading Fulham and Bournemouth from the Championship into the Premier League, Parker will be aiming to do the same with the Clarets.
BBC Sport understands Parker held a second round of talks with Burnley officials this week and has emerged as the preferred candidate, though a deal has yet to be officially signed.
