The German, 51, has also previously been linked with West Brom.

He launched his managerial career with Borussia Dortmund reserves.

And when Huddersfield took a chance on him in 2015 he rewarded them with the most famous season in their modern history two years later.

Huddersfield stayed up the next term but he departed in 2019 when they were bottom of the Prem.

Next came 16 troubled months with home country club Schalke after being handed a three-year contract.
