NEXT WEST BROM MANAGER:
James Morrison Interim Updates, Shortlist & Latest Odds
West Brom managers have been coming and going as if on a carousel over the past year or so. After the relative stability Carlos Corberan brought to The Hawthorns dugout, five different coaches have been in charge of Albion since his departure for Valencia on Christmas Eve, 2024. Baggies legend Chris Brunt oversaw a temporary spell alongside co-interim Damia Abella before Tony Mowbray returned for a second stint, which lasted a mere three months. James Morrison then had his first temporary stint, before Ryan Mason was appointed in the summer. However, things quickly went south under the stewardship of the former Tottenham midfielder, leading to the arrival of Eric Ramsay. Unfortunately, Ramsay’s spell proved to be an unmitigated failure, lasting just eight games and producing zero victories. So, Morrison is back at the helm until the end of the 2025-26 campaign as Shilen Patel searches for his next permanent incumbent.
Who is in the frame to take over at West Brom?
With the Baggies confirming that Morrison would remain in charge for the remainder of the Championship season as Albion fight against relegation to League One, there are no active betting markets as of March 2026 for their next full-time appointment.
But the most recent list was rather varied, and included a couple of names already well-versed in The Hawthorns dugout, including Corberan himself.
If Morrison can lead the Baggies to safety in the remaining weeks of the season, then he might just do enough to convince the board that he should get the job on a full-time basis.
