Jens Berthel Askou was appointed Motherwell boss last summer [Getty Images]
Toulouse have made an official approach to Motherwell as they aim to make manager Jens Berthel Askou their new head coach.
Askou led the Scottish Premiership club to a fourth-placed finish with victory at Hibernian last Saturday, securing European football for the Lanarkshire side.
Toulouse, meanwhile, ended their Ligue 1 season in 10th after beating Lyon on Sunday, a game which brought an end to Spanish boss Carles Martinez Novell's three-year tenure.
Negotiations are currently ongoing between the French side and Motherwell, but Fir Park sources have told BBC Scotland that nothing has been agreed regarding Askou's future.
The Danish coach has been heavily praised for implementing what many have described as the most attractive football in Scotland since his arrival last summer.
Askou's side have broken defensive club records without restricting their brave, attacking play, which has ultimately attracted interest from Europe.
