Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink is reportedly in advanced talks with Burton Albion about becoming their new manager.

The League Two side are looking for a new boss following the departure of Gary Rowett, who became Birmingham City manager a fortnight ago.

Former Chelsea and Leeds United striker Hasselbaink took over as manager of Royal Antwerp in 2013, but he stayed at the Belgian club for one season after failing to agree terms on a new contract.

Since ending his playing career in 2008, the former Netherlands international has worked as a coach at Nottingham Forest and Chelsea.

According to Sky Sports News, Hasselbaink is in advanced talks with Burton over the vacant manager's role.

Mike Whitlow is currently in caretaker charge of the Brewers.
