Norwich will put Leicester City boss Nigel Pearson on their wish-list if they axe Chris Hughton.
The Canaries manager’s future has been in doubt this season - and Saturday’s 7-0 defeat at Manchester City will not have helped.
Norwich’s board may decide to make a change sooner rather than later and Pearson’s record at Leicester has caught their eye.
The Foxes manager was in danger himself at the end of last season when Leicester failed to reach the play-off final after losing at Watford.
But Pearson was given another chance by the club’s Thai owners and it was a move that paid off.
Leicester are now second in the Championship and have reached the quarter-finals of the League Cup where they will face Manchester City.
Pearson’s stock has risen again in what is his second spell at the KP Stadium.
It was Pearson who turned Leicester’s fortunes around when they were relegated to League One under Ian Holloway in 2008.
Pearson got them promoted and then missed out on another play-off final before moving to Hull City.
When Leicester sacked Sven-Goran Eriksson two years ago it was Pearson they turned to.
Pearson rebuilt the squad and moved on some of the club’s high earners.
Now he is built a platform to take Leicester back to the Premier League.
But Norwich would have to match Pearson’s wages - Leicester put together a £1million package when he returned from Hull.
Tony Pulis and Ian Holloway would also be candidates for the Carrow Road position.
