The 49ers plan on Friday to interview Arizona vice president of player personnel Terry McDonough for the club’s vacant general manager position, multiple sources told CSNBayArea.com.
McDonough completed his fourth season with the Cardinals and his third in his current position. He oversees the college and pro personnel departments while assisting with the negotiations of player contracts.
McDonough becomes the ninth known candidate for the job to replace general manager Trent Baalke, who was fired on the weekend of the 49ers’ final game of the regular season.
The 49ers have already interviewed Eliot Wolf and Brian Gutekunst of Green Bay, Minnesota’s George Paton, Carolina’s Brandon Beane, Indianapolis’ Jimmy Raye III and ESPN analyst Louis Riddick.
