- Michael Carrick and Carlos Corberan also feature prominently in the market amid speculation around Championship reshuffles.
- West Brom sit 18th in the table after 10 straight away defeats, with James Morrison taking interim charge.
Ryan Mason sacked as West Brom manager
Championship side West Bromwich Albion are once again on the lookout for a new head coach, with the club parting ways with Ryan Mason after a 2-1 defeat at Leicester City marked their 10th consecutive away loss.
UK betting sites have reacted quickly to the news, pricing up a competitive market to replace Mason, who only took the job in the summer after leaving his coaching role at Tottenham.
The Baggies' form has plummeted, and the club now finds itself 10 points adrift of the play-off places, sitting in 18th position.
With the FA Cup clash at Swansea up next and a league hiatus until mid-January, the timing allows the board a brief window to act.
Carsley Heads Competitive Market
BetVictor have installed England U21 boss Lee Carsley as the 4/1 frontrunner to take the reins at The Hawthorns.
Carsley has long been linked with club roles and may see this as a realistic opportunity to step into senior management, especially with West Brom still considered a big name in Championship circles.
Meanwhile, former Middlesbrough boss Michael Carrick is second favourite at 6/1, although he's been linked with the Manchester United interim job.
Former Huddersfield and West Brom coach Carlos Corberan also features in the running, priced at 8/1, while Gary O'Neil is a 10/1 shot.
| Next West Brom Manager | Odds | Implied Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Lee Carsley | 4/1 | 20.0% |
| Michael Carrick | 6/1 | 14.3% |
| Carlos Corberan | 8/1 | 11.1% |
| Gary O'Neil | 10/1 | 9.1% |
| James Morrison | 14/1 | 6.7% |
| Michael Skubala | 14/1 | 6.7% |
Morrison in Interim Charge
James Morrison, a club legend and current first-team coach, has stepped up as interim manager for the FA Cup tie this weekend.
He's a 12/1 outsider in the betting to get the job permanently but with a run of results, his stock could quickly rise.
We've seen it before: clubs that turn to a steady internal hand during chaos and then stick with them.
However, with results needed fast and fan pressure growing, the West Brom board may lean towards experience.
