Steve Morgan admits Alan Curbishley interest

Wolverhampton Wanderers chairman Steve Morgan has admitted that Alan Curbishley is a contender to become the club's new manager.

The former West Ham United and Charlton Athletic boss made his interest in the vacancy known earlier today.

While admitting that there are a number of candidates for the job, Morgan has conceded that Curbishley has the necessary experience that the club's board are looking for.

"He's got a great track record and he's been there and done that before," Morgan told Sky Sports News. "He's exactly the calibre of person we'd be looking at.

"There are a number of other candidates but clearly we'd be interested in someone of his calibre."

Curbishley has been out of work since leaving the Hammers in 2008.
