Hull City and West Bromwich Albion are just two of the several Championship clubs without a manager.
Hull City face competition from West Bromwich Albion for Danny Cowley after making the Lincoln City manager their number one target to succeed Nigel Adkins, according to The Mirror.
The newspaper claims that Cowley has already held talks over the West Brom vacancy and will cost £500,000 in compensation.
Middlesbrough have also been credited with an interest in the 40-year-old, but it appears there is now a new player on the scene in Hull, whose previous boss, Nigel Adkins, resigned on Saturday.
Cowley has led Lincoln to two promotions in three seasons as well as an FA Cup quarter-final, in which several top and second-tier sides were overcome, while still a non-league outfit.
And his track record could be especially appealing to the likes of Hull and West Brom, who are desperate to return to the Premier League at the third and second time of asking, respectively.
The out-of work duo, Slaven Bilic and Chris Hughton, have each been strongly linked with Darren Moore’s old job at The Hawthorns.
