Former Ipswich Town boss Mick McCarthy is eyeing a return to management and is keen on potential roles at Leeds United and Sheffield Wednesday.

The Sun (22/4 page 63) reports McCarthy would be keen to take jobs at either club if they were to become available.

Mick McCarthy of Wolves looks on during the Barclays Premier League match between Wolverhampton Wanderers and Aston Villa at Molineux on January 21, 2012 in Wolverhampton, England.

The former Wolves and Republic of Ireland boss quit Ipswich this month explaining that both he and the Tractor Boys needed a fresh start.

The Yorkshireman is said to have his sights on both Leeds and Sheffield Wednesday, two clubs who have changed managers this season.

They have struggled since making changes, and Paul Heckingbottom at Leeds and Jos Luhakay at Wednesday are both under pressure.

Heckingbottom has won just three games since taking charge at Leeds, and owner Andrea Radrizzani clearly has a big decision to make with experienced hand McCarthy willing to step in.

Leeds are in 12th place and Sheffield Wednesday 15th, with both clubs hoping to bounce back next season and challenge for promotion.

McCarthy has previously won promotion from the Championship with both Sunderland and Wolves.
