After Darren Moore was shockingly sacked by West Bromwich Albion hours after their 1-1 draw against bottom of the Championship side Ipswich Town, we’ve taken a look at who are favourites for the job at The Hawthorns.
Assistants Graeme Jones and Wayne Jacobs have also been relieved of their duties.
Albion have won just four of their last 12 league games and suffered defeats by fellow promotion contenders.
First-team coach James Shan has been placed in charge of first-team affairs in the interim but the Club hope to be able to name a new Head Coach as soon as possible.
Take a look at who are the top six favourites below and on the next page.
6th) CARLOS CARVALHAL
Carlos Carvalhal has been out of a job since the end of last season when he left Swansea City.
It’s reported that he’s turned down plenty of offers from other clubs around the world because he wanted to work in England again.
Was most recently linked with the Nottingham Forest job, however that has been given to Martin O’Neill.
Current odds on Sky Bet: 12/1
5th) DEREK MCINNES
Current odds on Sky Bet: 10/1
4th) DAVID WAGNER
David Wagner is not interested in becoming the new West Brom manager, according to Sky Sports, and is happy to wait until the summer for his next opportunity in management.
He is a former manager of Borussia Dortmund II and current Premier League strugglers Huddersfield Town, who departed the latter club in January after revealing that he needed to take a break from the rigours of football management.
The only managerial honour he has to his name is taking the Terriers up from the Championship through the playoffs and then miraculously guided them to Premier League safety in the first season, many tipping him for Manager of the Season and even described by The Guardian as “the Premier League’s greatest survival story”.
Current odds on Sky Bet: 10/1
