Uwe Rosler has emerged as a contender for the vacant manager’s post at Championship Barnsley.
The 52-year old coached at Bundesliga side Fortuna Dusseldorf last season and is keen on a return to England where he has had previous success with the likes of Brentford and Fleetwood Town.
Rosler, who has vast experience from managing across Europe, remains a cult figure at his former club Manchester City where he scored 64 goals in 176 games as an all action striker and maintains a good relationship with the Premier League champions.
