Former Norwich City boss David Wagner is under consideration at LA Galaxy should they decide to change from head coach Greg Vanney.
Galaxy won the MLS Cup last year but sit bottom of the Western Conference with no wins from eight games.
They were also knocked out of the Champions Cup by Tigres.
It’s a stark contrast to last year as Vanney led the Galaxy to their highest points total since 1998 and the MLS Cup against the New York Red Bulls. It gave Vanney his second MLS Cup as a coach and the Galaxy’s first in 10 years.
Positive results have been harder to find this time round though and that has led to Galaxy considering what is the best course of action.
Should they opt to change coach, Wagner has vast experience and is a former USA international.

LA Galaxy are bottom of the Western Conference, with Greg Vanney’s future uncertain
The 53-year old was born and raised in Germany where he carved out his football career but qualified for the USA owing to his parentage.
He went on to pick up eight international caps.
A close friend of former Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp, Wagner forged a promising coaching reputation with Borussia Dortmund before achieving remarkable success with Huddersfield Town by taking them into the Premier League.
He went on to coach Schalke and Young Boys before returning to England with Norwich City.
Despite criticism in the early part of last season, he rallied to guide them into the play-offs only for them to lose to Leeds United in the semi finals.
