Manchester United are set to snap up goalkeeper coach Eric Steele ahead of Blackburn Rovers.
Steele, a former Manchester City goalkeeping coach, has been lined up to replace Tony Coton, even though he had agreed to assume a similar role at Ewood Park a fortnight ago. Steele left City after Mark Hughes opted to appoint Kevin Hitchcock, his former goalkeeping coach at Blackburn, in the wake of his arrival as manager.
