Steve Davis has indicated that he would be keen to on the current vacant managerial position at already relegated National League side Chester FC.
Davis, who has been out of work since leaving Leyton Orient at the start of the season, told The Chester Chronicle: “From the outside looking in there are a lot of challenges at Chester at the moment but it is a big club with a big fanbase and it’s a job that will always appeal when it comes up.

“I’ve enjoyed having a little spell out of the game but I am wanting to get back in now and I’d be more than willing to have a chat to someone at the club about their vision for it and how I could help. The next job has to be key for me as I left Leyton Orient in January and what happened there means people can forget what you have achieved in the past.
“I’ve been Crewe manager so I know all about bringing through young players and making them part of the first team. I have also managed at non-league level for five years and won silverware during that time too.
“At Crewe I was operating on a smaller budget than other teams and working with a model where it was vital we brought young players through, and in that time we won promotion and a trophy and managed to stay up in League One for four seasons.”
During his five-year stint as Crewe manager Davis guided Alex to League One in a dramatic play-off victory against Cheltenham Town in 2012. However he was relieved of his duties in January 2017, with the club sitting in 18th place in League Two following relegation the previous season.
