Sky Sports understands Harry Redknapp has agreed a deal to succeed Mark Hughes as Queens Park Rangers manager.
Hughes was sacked as Rangers boss on Friday morning with the club rooted to the bottom of the table and without a win in the Premier League this term.
The future of Hughes at Loftus Road had been in severe doubt since last weekend's defeat at home to fellow strugglers Southampton, with fans calling for Redknapp to replace him.
The QPR board have now decided to wield the axe and have turned to Redknapp to save their season.
Mark Bowen and Eddie Niedzwiecki will take charge for the match away to Manchester United on Saturday and Sky Sports understands Redknapp will formally take control of first-team affairs after this weekend's clash at Old Trafford.
Redknapp has been out of work since leaving Tottenham in June and he has been linked with a number of jobs since, but he is now poised to get back into management at Loftus Road.
