Newport Gwent Dragons coaches Lyn Jones and Kingsley Jones are reportedly in the frame for a switch to Gloucester Rugby.
The Cherry and Whites sacked director of rugby Nigel Davies on Monday after two years at the helm.
Gloucester have now begun the search for a replacement, with their ex-club captain and a former London Welsh boss potential targets for the Aviva Premiership side, according to PA.
Former All Blacks coach Wayne Smith is also said to have an interest in taking up the role, while no shortlist has yet been finalised.
Gloucester finished their league season in ninth place.
