Bristol City are poised to appoint former Notts County and Forest Green boss Ian Burchnall as Michael Skubala's assistant manager.
The Robins are also trying to bring QPR first-team coach Steve Bould to Ashton Gate as Skubala looks to finalise his backroom team.
Boss Skubala joined the Robins last month after leaving Lincoln, having guided the Imps to the League One title as they returned to the second tier for the first time in 65 years.
Lincoln assistants Chris Cohen and Tom Shaw were made joined head coaches and did not follow him to Ashton Gate.
Burchnall was close to being appointed Rotherham manager last month, having worked under the Millers' new head of football Steve McClaren with the Jamaica national side last year.
He was most recently first-team coach at Aberdeen under interim boss Peter Leven last season.
Burchnall was also assistant manager at Belgian side Anderlecht before a spell at Wolves under Gary O'Neil.
He has managed Notts County and Forest Green and he has also taken charge of Viking and Ostersund - where he succeeded Graham Potter - in Scandinavia.
Former Arsenal defender Bould, who also spent seven years coaching at the Gunners under Arsene Wenger and Unai Emery, has been with QPR for a year.
