Former Manchester United defender Gabriel Heinze is the rumoured front runner to take charge at Real Valladolid this month.
The La Liga side are looking for a new boss, following the sacking of Paulo Pezzolano in November, with Alvaro Rubio in interim charge.
As per reports from Marca, the club have cast their net wide to source a replacement, and Heinze is the current favoured option to step in.
Talks have already taken place with Heinze and his representatives with the 46-year-old currently unattached following his exit from Newell’s Old Boys a year ago.
Heinze began his European playing career in Valladolid, after joining from Newell’s back in 1997, before eventually ending up at Old Trafford in 2004.
After winning the 2006/07 Premier League title, he moved on to Real Madrid, and instantly secured a La Liga crown.
However, his coaching record is mixed, after spells managing domestically in Argentina plus a stint at MLS side Atlanta United.
