31-year-old is frontrunner to replace Tony MowbrayStill considering move to Stadium of Light
Sunderland owner Kyril Louis-Dreyfus has held positive discussions with Will Still about replacing Tony Mowbray as manager, with the 31-year-old having emerged as the frontrunner for the post.
Still, who has guided Reims to eighth in Ligue 1 in his second season in charge, is understood to be considering taking over at the Stadium of Light after speaking to Louis-Dreyfus. He is highly rated by the Sunderland chairman after his success since being appointed by Reims last year, when a 17-match unbeaten run saw them eventually finish 11th.
