Sir Alex Ferguson's son Darren is in line to
succeed Steve Bruce at Wigan.
Ferguson has just enjoyed back-to-back promotions from
League Two to the Championship with Peterborough, confirming his
managerial potential, and Wigan supremo Dave Whelan is a huge
admirer of his motivational abilities.
It is unclear, however, whether Ferguson would be keen to take
the job, having said that Peterborough have what it takes to gain
an incredible third promotion in a row, this time to the Premier
League.
He will also be mindful of the experience of Paul Ince, who was
thrust into the hotseat at Blackburn after winning promotion with
MK Dons, only to be sacked prematurely at Ewood Park.
Swansea boss Roberto Martinez has also been linked with the
Wigan manager’s job but is said to be wanted by Spanish side Real
Sociedad.
