Former Port Vale director of football David Flitcroft is ‘in the frame’ for a senior role at Carlisle United, according to journalist Alan Nixon.
Flitcroft parted ways with Port Vale in March this year with the club struggling in League One, a battle they would ultimately lose and slip back down to League Two.
The director of football came in for fierce criticism from a number of Vale fans and paid the price for the club’s poor form.
His work at Vale Park remains rated by a number of sides though and Carlisle are one of them.
Carlisle are looking to revamp their off pitch structure with the appointment of a head coach and sporting director.
Flitcroft is now ‘in the frame’ for a senior position, while Carlisle look for a boss who likes to play attacking football.
Carlisle currently sit a lowly 22nd in the League Two standings.
They head to Port Vale close to Christmas in a league fixture and all eyes will be on whether Flitcroft is with the visiting directors.
