Brighton and Albion are on the verge of finalizing the deal with Roberto de Zerbi as their new head manager.
The Seagulls announced Graham Potter's depearture weeks ago, as he joined Chelsea to replace Thomas Tuchel following his sacking.
Therefore, several names have been linked to take charge over the team but the Italian manager remains the 'ideal replacement' in the shortlist.
According to Fabrizio Romano, the negotiations are in progress with de Zerbi, who is currently out of work after leaving Shakhtar Donetsk this year.
