The name Ferguson is closely tied to a very successful era for Manchester United.
Sir Alex Ferguson’s time at the club influenced many fans and left a lasting mark on Old Trafford.
His son has also made a name for himself in football, focusing on a managerial career outside the Premier League.
Darren Ferguson, the younger Ferguson, has mostly worked in the lower leagues but has built a solid record of his own.
Recently, he became a candidate for the managerial position at Northampton Town.
However, he quickly dismissed the idea of moving to the League One club.
According to reports, although he was approached about the role, he made it clear that he was not interested.
The Sun cites Darren Ferguson stating that taking the job would be a “definite no.”
Currently without a club, Ferguson is waiting for a suitable opportunity to arise.
He is best known for his time at Peterborough United, where he managed the team during four different periods, though he was eventually relieved of his duties.
During his time there, he achieved notable success, winning the EFL Trophy three times and leading the club to several promotions.
His career also includes stints at Preston North End and Doncaster Rovers.
The Nottingham opening happened after the club ended their relationship with Kevin Nolan.
Nolan, a former Premier League player known for his time with teams like West Ham and Newcastle, was let go earlier this week.
This decision comes at a tough time for Northampton, who are currently second to last in EFL League One.
With only ten matches left this season, the club is facing a challenging fight for survival in the league.
For Darren Ferguson, however, this situation will not mark the beginning of his next role.
He seems ready to wait for the right opportunity to come along.
