Ralph Hasenhuttl Set To Return To Management

After 14 months out of the game the rumour mill is suggesting that Ex Southampton manager Ralph Hasenhuttl is ready to return to football management and he could be facing his old club this season

Talksport's chief football reporter Alex Crook has tweeted or is that X'ed that ex Saints manager Ralph Hasenhuttl is ready to return to work and that Birmingham City who today sacked Wayne Rooney after only 15 games is a potential destination.

How much substance this rumour has is anyone's guess, if he is appointed then Hasenhuttl would be due a reunion with his former club in the first week of March when Saints travel to St Andrews.

However he could have a reunion with his former assistant at St Mary's Danny Rohl on February 10th when Birmingham travel to Hillsborough to take on Sheffield Wednesday.

Southampton supporters will speculate on just what Ralph could have achieved at the club had Rohl not left St Mary's for Bayern Munich, Ralph soldiered on without Rohl for several years but never quite found an assistant as good as Rohl with whom he had previously worked with at RB Leipzig.
