WARATAHS coach Ewen McKenzie is set to sign a three-year deal with Stade Francais.

McKenzie has agreed to terms with the French club and is awaiting the last details of the contract to be finalised.

Meanwhile, former Wallabies attack coach Scott Johnson has firmed as his most likely replacement, but won't comment on speculation he has been offered the job.

Johnson, who recently signed a contract to coach the United States national team for the next four years, will return from a San Diego training camp this week.

"I'm here doing this, that's where I want to be at the moment," he said from the US. "I'll let everything else sort itself out."

Despite his commitment to the Eagles, NSW have postponed making any appointment until they meet him again.
