According to talkSPORT (15 May), Brentford boss Thomas Frank is admired by Levy and the Bees are bracing themselves for interest in their boss from the North London club.
When asked if Frank could be tempted away from the Gtech Community Stadium, Hutton told Football Insider: “You never know, money talks at the end of the day.
“He has done an incredible job but there are others out there. De Zerbi, for talking’s sake, Graham Potter is still out there, could he do a job?
“The problem is I just do not know what direction they are going in. Do they want an expansive, attacking manager, young with fresh ideas. Are they going to go for someone with experience who has been there and done it before?
“They are just a little bit all over the place.“
