West Brom are close to appointing former Newcastle manager Steve Bruce as their new boss.
The 61-year-old has held talks and is likely to replace Valerien Ismael, who left the club on Wednesday after a run of one win in seven league games.
Ex-Aston Villa, Hull, Sunderland and Birmingham manager Bruce left Premier League Newcastle in October, soon after their Saudi Arabia-backed takeover.
Albion are sixth in the Championship, eight points behind second.
Bruce has extensive experience in the Championship, getting promoted twice at both Birmingham and Hull.
