Sheffield United are expected to unveil Nigel Adkins as their new manager at a press conference in London at 17:00 BST.
The Blades sacked Nigel Clough nine days ago.
Adkins, out of work for just under six months after being sacked by Reading in December 2014, will become the Blades' eighth manager since they were relegated from the top flight in 2007.
