Marseille manager Eric Gerets is said to be keen on a move to Spain to take charge of high flying Sevilla.
The Belgian coach has led Marseille to second in the league in France, just a point behind Lyon, but the former PSV Eindhoven manager is said to be on the lookout for a fresh challenge.
The l'OM board are expected to put up a fight for their sought after manager and Gerets is currently in negotiations with the club regarding a new deal.
Gerets' current deal expires at the end of the season and a move to Sevilla is anticipated with current boss Manolo Jiminez under pressure despite leading the side to third in the Primera Division, behind Barcelona and Real Madrid.
"I am an adventurer who wants to find new horizons," he told Belgian newspaper Het Nieuwsblad .
"England, Italy, Spain. Sevilla is a fantastic sunny city with a great club. I am watching my mailbox everyday to find an invitation."
