Melbourne Victory are believed to be set to hold talks with Gianfranco Zola regarding the coaching job.
The former Chelsea striker, who has managerial experience with West Ham United, is in Melbourne to visit his daughter who is staying with a Victory director and will reportedly hold discussions with the club.
The two-time A-League champions are in the hunt for a new head coach after Jim Magilton and the club parted ways with reports suggesting Zola could be a serious candidate for the job.
