Alan Stubbs is reportedly a key target for Brentford as they continue their search for a new manager.

The Hibernian boss is one of a number of names the Bees are considering to replace Marinus Dijkhuizen who they parted ways with recently.

Stubbs' former Everton teammate Lee Carsley is the current interim manager at Griffin Park but does not fancy the job on a permanent basis which has opened the door for the 44-year-old former Toffees and Bolton star.

Stubbs took over at Easter Road last summer and currently has Hibs sitting third on the Scottish Championship table following last season's second-place finish.
