Burnley manager Sean Dyche is reported by the Mirror to be among the potential contenders to replace Mark Hughes at Southampton.
The Clarets boss is listed alongside several others who could be targeted by the Saints, as they continue to struggle in the Premier League this season.
Hughes has seen his future at St Mary’s Stadium come under scrutiny in recent weeks, as his side slipped into the relegation zone on Saturday afternoon following a crushing 3-2 defeat away at Fulham.
Dyche’s Burnley have hardly done much more to convince, however, and are sat narrowly outside the bottom three in 17th place.
Pressure is mounting on the 47-year-old as the Clarets struggle for form. On Monday evening, they were defeated 2-1 by fellow relegation battlers Newcastle United at Turf Moor.
According to the Mirror, Dyche is one of many names under consideration by Saints, with the likes of Peter Bosz, Brendan Rodgers and Leonardo Jardim also presented as potential targets should Hughes be dealt his marching orders.
