Barnsley seems poised to reappoint Daniel Stendel for a second stint at Oakwell.
The Tykes have reportedly cooled their interest in MK Dons boss Mike Williamson as they focus on bringing back Stendel. Barnsley, who loaned Conor Grant from Dons in the second half of the season, dismissed Neill Collins almost a month ago before their League One playoff campaign against Bolton Wanderers.
After failing to secure Austrian target Dominik Thalhammer due to work permit issues, the Yorkshire club had to consider alternatives, with Williamson reportedly among the candidates.
Stendel, who previously led Barnsley to promotion to the Championship in the 2018/19 season before being sacked early in the following season, appears set to return. Following his departure from Barnsley, he managed Hearts and Nancy and then returned to Hannover 96, where he concluded his playing career, as the reserve team manager. Now, he seems ready to return to Yorkshire.
