Sunderland eyeing dream Rohl alternative in “exciting” 4-3-3 boss
Sunderland could set their sights away from Danny Rohl as their next manager with this dream alternative.
Sunderland won’t be exactly gutted when the regular Championship season comes to a close this coming Saturday, with another defeat to Watford last time out their 21st loss of a dismal campaign.
It’s been a car-crash on Wearside with Michael Beale and Tony Mowbray also occupying the dug-out at one point before a lacklustre Mike Dodds took on the poisoned Black Cats chalice, the latter man set to walk out of the Stadium of Light at the end of the campaign dejected with his efforts as interim manager.
Black Cats fans will want to enjoy watching their side again next season after poor displays have become far too common under Dodds, with this potential new face bringing excitement back to proceedings if given a chance as his successor.
Sunderland’s search for a manager
Various different names are being touted to join Sunderland in the off-season as their next boss, as some left-field faces now begin to gain traction.
Even former Sunderland star Jermain Defoe has thrown his hat into the ring to be the next Black Cats boss, with reports even suggesting that informal talks have taken place recently between the now-retired striker and the powers that be at the Stadium of Light.
There’s a different manager, however, that looks to be the frontrunner away from these outlandish reports, with the Black Cats potentially trying to replicate the success story of Danny Rohl at Sheffield Wednesday in this pursuit.
A report from the Northern Echo suggests that Sunderland – who are also believed to be looking at Rohl – have made contact with Bayern Munich U19s coach Rene Maric about taking over in the summer, the 31-year-old having previously experienced English football with Leeds United as assistant manager to the divisive Jesse Marsch.
