Graham Potter could be in Amsterdam to finalise a return to management with Ajax tomorrow, following talks with the Eredivisie club, according to reports.
Mail Sport reported that the former Chelsea and Brighton boss had held talks with the struggling Dutch giants earlier this month, though at that stage he was believed to be keeping his options open.
The 48-year-old has been out of work since his Stamford Bridge dismissal last April following a poor run of form in a campaign which ended with the Blues languishing in 12th in the Premier League.
After lasting only seven months into a five-year deal, Potter was understood to be looking for the right club with a clear strategy and was happy to remain patient until the right emerged.
According to ESPN Netherlands, he is a step closer to that reality. They report that Potter and Ajax are in 'very serious stages stages' and he could travel to Amsterdam as earlier as Wednesday or Thursday.
