The Championship club have reportedly opened talks with their former manager

Preston North End's upcoming opponents, Birmingham City, are reportedly in talks to appoint former manager, Gary Rowett, on an interim basis. Blues boss, Tony Mowbray, temporarily stepped away from his role in mid-February after requiring medical treatment. Since then, the St Andrew's side have picked up one point from six games and slid into relegation trouble. Birmingham are 21st in the Championship table, level on points with 22nd placed Huddersfield Town.

But, reports in the national media now suggest that Birmingham will bring their old manager back for the final eight games of the season. The Blues' first game back after the international break is Queens Park Rangers away, before Preston North End head to the Midlands on Monday, April 1. Rowett steered Birmingham to safety in the 2014/15 season, but was then sacked by new owners in December 2016 - when the Blues sat seventh in the table.
