Depor to install Del Bosque

Deportivo La Coruna are understood to have reached an agreement with Vicente Del Bosque that will see the former Real Madrid boss take charge of the club next season.

Del Bosque recently departed Turkish outfit Besiktas and is a free agent.

Current Deportivo boss Javier Irureta is to leave the Galician club at the end of the season after seven years in charge - although he has yet to officially confirm it.

Irureta's contract expires at the end of the season, and it is the worst kept secret in Spanish football that he will not be renewing it.

Depor have known for some time the Basque coach was planning to depart, and have considered a number of names to replace him including Carlos Bianchi, Mane, Luis Fernandez and Joaquin Caparros.

However, Del Bosque now appears certain to get the job, with Marca reporting he has a verbal agreement with the club.

Del Bosque had a superb record with Real Madrid leading the capital club to two Primera titles and two UEFA Champions League successes during his time in charge.

However, the relationship ended in an acrimonious split in the summer of 2003 when the Salamanca-born coach was sacked just days after leading the club to the Spanish league title.

After taking a break from management, he returned to the game at the start of this season by accepting the Besiktas post, but was sacked last week after just six months in charge.
