Aberdeen will reportedly confirm the appointment of Derek McInnes as their next manager at the beginning of next week.
The Dons have been searching for a new boss for the start of next season since Craig Brown confirmed he would retire at the end of the current campaign.
Initial interest in Derek Adams was met with a rejection from Ross County, leading to McInnes being linked with the post alongside former Scotland coach Craig Levein.
McInnes has been without a job since January after being sacked by Championship side Bristol City following a poor run of form over Christmas.
According to BBC Sport the two parties are currently in negotiations and could confirm the appointment of McInnes on Monday.
