‘Unlikely’ – Journalist shares latest update as West Brom search for next manager

Reports that Mowbray would return to the Hawthorns have been refuted by the Birmingham Mail journalist. Carlos Corberan left the Baggies to join Valencia of Spain, leaving them without a manager at the moment. Journalist Alan Nixon of The Sun asserted earlier today that Mowbray, who is on a hiatus from football after departing Birmingham City last season for health reasons, is prepared to become the Baggies’ next manager. He also says the 61-year-old CEO is available for work and has met Albion twice. Only after receiving final clearance regarding health difficulties within the following two weeks will the highly experienced leader be taken into consideration. “BirminghamLive understands that is unlikely to be the timeframe in which Albion are operating, thus negating the prospect of a return to The Hawthorns,” Dick writes after the fact.

According to Brian Dick, West Bromwich Albion has not yet named their next manager, and it will not be Tony Mowbray.

“BirminghamLive understands that is unlikely to be the timeframe in which Albion are operating, thus negating the prospect of a return to The Hawthorns,” Dick writes after the fact.Another name that might be considered for West Brom is Swiss coach Raphael Wicky. Mowbray played for the Baggies for three years, from 2006 to 2009, and was promoted to the Premier League in 2008. He has had a successful managerial career with Sunderland and Blackburn Rovers, and he might be the ideal candidate to lead the Baggies back to the Premier League.

With 40 points, West Brom is in sixth place in the championship standings and should hope to make the playoffs this year. That being said, West Brom might seek out youthful managers who possess technical acumen and play a compelling style of game. Nixon asserts that Blackburn is pursuing West Brom winger Jed Wallace in the event that they are unable to sign Jeffrey Schlupp of Crystal Palace. Rovers can make a move for Wallace in the next few days because Oliver Glasner does not want to lose his players this month.
