Cardiff's vacant manager role a 'fantastic job' - Lowe
Former Preston North End boss Ryan Lowe says the vacant manager's position at Cardiff City is a "fantastic job".
The 46-year-old, who has also managed Bury and Plymouth Argyle, is one of the bookies' favourites including ex-Croatia boss Slaven Bilic and Steven Schumacher - sacked as Stoke City boss in September - to become Cardiff's next permanent manager.
Interim Bluebirds boss Omer Riza has been in charge since Erol Bulut's sacking and has said he would like the role full time.
Lowe had been at Preston since 2021 but asked to leave in August after just one game of the new season following discussions with the club’s board.
While Lowe would not be drawn on whether there has been any contact with the Cardiff hierarchy, he made it clear it was a job worth considering.
“I can’t tell you anything that you don’t already know,” Lowe told Sky Sports.
“What I will say is that I think Cardiff City’s a fantastic football club, very attractive to any manager who is out of work.
“[They have a] great fanbase and [they are] probably in a false position because they have got some quality players and they have got a fantastic youth system as well.
“So it’s a fantastic job for not just myself but… any other manager that’s out of work.”
Cardiff remain bottom of the Championship despite Riza leading them to their first league win of the season against Millwall and a draw at Bristol City this month.
The Bluebirds return to action on Saturday, 19 October with a 12:30 BST kick-off at home to Plymouth Argyle.
