Former Tottenham boss Martin Jol on Manchester City's shortlist to replace Sven
Martin Jol has joined Phil Scolari at the top of Manchester City's list of candidates to replace outgoing manager Sven Goran Eriksson.
Sportsmail understands former Tottenham boss Jol has been contacted by City representatives and urged to hold fire over his proposed move to Hamburg.
Jol was due to be unveiled by Hamburg over the weekend but has agreed to delay any decision on his future after telling friends he would be strongly interested in a return to the Barclays Premier League.
City are expected to renew contact with him on Monday, 24 hours after what seems sure to be Eriksson's last game in charge, as owner Thaksin Shinawatra steps up his search for a successor.
Scolari remains the prime candidate to fill the vacancy but is reluctant to declare his hand until after this summer's European Championships, when he feels he could be in a stronger position than ever to take his pick of Europe's top club posts.
There will be no shortage of takers for the Portugal coach, and City are clearly making provision for a counter-offer from one of Spain's leading clubs proving decisive.
Hamburg are desperate to appoint Jol as soon as possible but have been told by his advisers they will have to remain patient, while he waits to discover the extent of City's interest.
