Barnsley sacked Markus Schopp at the start of the month, with The Tykes losing seven successive Championship matches. 

The Yorkshire club were also without a second-tier victory in 13 games, and despite the performances near the end of his reign not being too bad, it was certainly time for a change.

Sitting four points from Championship survival, this season is proving to be a big change from last year's fifth-place finish.

According to the Yorkshire Post, Barnsley are highly likely to name an overseas head coach once again, following in the footsteps of their recent managerial appointments.

It remains to be seen who Barnsley are viewing as candidates at this point, and how long the process may be.
