Should Hull City appoint Sergej Jakirovic as their new head coach, what could the club expect from the Bosnian?
The 48-year-old has managed in Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia and most recently, Turkey, but if he does the Tigers, it will be his first managerial experience of English football.
Croatian journalist Ivan Renic has been speaking to BBC Radio Humberside about what Jakirovic might be able to bring to the team.
"You can expect attacking football," Renic said.
"He's not used to defending. Everywhere except the last Turkey job, he was attacking the title, fighting for the title, for the cups, for everything.
"He usually plays a 4-2-3-1 attacking formation with one central striker, which he's going to find probably in the transfer window."
As for what his best attribute is, Renic believes it's the connection between the boss and his squad.
"He has a good relationship with players, that's what is special about him," he said.
"He really connects with the players on a special level and that's what his biggest talent is. He can lift the player up, especially the striker who needs the confidence to score goals."
