A new shock contender has emerged for the vacant Celtic job.
Pascal Jansen is reportedly on a list of names that Parkhead chiefs are considering as a replacement for Ange Postecoglou.
The Scottish Sun claims that the Hoops could rival both Ajax and PSV Eindhoven for the 50-year-old, who appears to be a man in demand.
The London-born gaffer is fresh off the back of leading AZ Alkmaar to fourth in the Eredivisie.
His side were also narrowly knocked out of the Europa Conference League by eventual winners West Ham in the semi-finals.
Jansen has never worked in the UK before but is well known for his attractive style of football.
While this would clearly be suitable for Celtic and the players they currently have in their squad, it seems that they would need to act fast if he's their preferred choice, with other clubs also keeping tabs.
Both Ajax and PSV are said to be interested in Jansen, as they look for permanent replacements for Alfred Schreuder and Ruud van Nistelrooy respectively.
Jansen joins a long list of names that have been linked with the Parkhead vacancy in recent days.
Enzo Maresca, Brendan Rodgers, and David Moyes are among the favourites for the gig.
And while nothing is clear yet, talkSPORT host Alan Brazil claims to have some insider information.
He said: "I think I have a wee bit of, maybe a wee bit of inside information here.
"I don't want to put people on to putting a £5 on it. Do you know is going to have a big say and this is going to astonish you - Pep Guardiola. Pep, he will have a massive say as he and Dermot Desmond are very close.
"It's Enzo Maresca, I've got it, on good authority. I do know that Brendan Rodgers is odds-on favourite but it is interesting, Pep's associations with Dermot. Dermot is a very clever guy."
