Sabri Lamouchi is "closing in" on a return to English football after being sacked by Nottingham Forest over two years ago.
The Frenchman emerged as a candidate for the vacant Cardiff City earlier this week. The Bluebirds have been on the lookout for a new manager for two weeks having sacked Mark Hudson following a 1-1 draw with Wigan Athletic.
The club received many applications for the job, but Lamouchi appears to have won the role, according to WalesOnline. Former Cardiff and Leicester City defender Sol Bamba is expected to be installed as his assistant in the dugout.
