The Aberdeen board has made its first moves in their managerial search.
The Dons hierarchy have made initial contact with some applicants while other targets have been reached out to independently – including Chris Wilder As Record Sport revealed last week, former Sheffield United manager Wilder would be interested in talking to the Dons and has since been given backing by huge sections of the Red Army.
Danny Cowley is also out of a job and was interviewed by the club previously before he pulled out after he landed the Portsmouth post. There have been domestic, English and European applicants as Aberdeen powerbrokers sift through a mountain of CVs . The list includes managers with English Premier League and Championship experience and others who have led clubs to European qualification. Former Poland manager Czeslaw Michniewicz has thrown his hat in the ring along with the likes of ex-Hibs boss John Hughes and Dwight Yorke.
