RADO Vidosic says he is talking to his son, midfielder playmaker Dario, about Adelaide United's coaching job but denies the Reds have offered him one of the vacancies.

Brisbane Roar's technical director has been touted as an Adelaide coach alongside current No. 1 Mike Valkanis for the new season.

But Vidosic, a former high school teacher, admitted he had some thinking to do over Easter.

"No, I haven't been approached and I'm still working with Brisbane," Vidosic said.

"I might be in between jobs. Now, do I stay in football or go back to teaching? I have been talking to Dario about the (coaching) group recommendation."

Vidosic, according to Adelaide officials, was denied a chance to become an assistant to Valkanis when John Kosmina quit the club in January because Roar would not release him from his current contract, which ends in 2015.

But Valkanis is in the box seat to win the job for a two-year term, with Vidosic as an assistant. Vidosic has also attracted interest from Sydney FC for the new season.

Vidosic and Sydney boss Frank Farina worked in tandem at Roar before the former Socceroos boss was sacked by the club in 2009.

Adelaide's hierarchy is scheduled to meet on Tuesday to clarify the role of the coaching selection panel, which was announced by the club on February 6 on Football Federation Australia's website.

The website statement declared: "Adelaide United has recognised a need to seek third party expertise in sourcing the best coach for the club going forward. The selection process will see the panel in charge of sourcing the final interview candidates to recommend for the club's board to consider and make the final decision."

But the Reds board is tipped to ratify the coaching decision without consulting the coaching selection committee's football experts.

The panel includes Adelaide owner Bruno Marveggio, Socceroos Craig Foster, Alex Tobin and John Perin and Port Adelaide fitness manager Darren Burgess.
