Who Will Be The Next WBA Manager

Ahead of Corberan being appointed the following managers were quoted by the bookmakers. If his appointment does not go to plan and the Baggies decide another change is needed then we could expect these managers to feature in the betting market again.

The former Wolves player has forged a managerial career in Australia, where he worked closely with current Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou. His name had started to feature prominently in a range of next-manager markets, especially when he was heavily supported to be the next Glasgow Rangers manager in October 2023.

The former Manchester United midfielder we are now more used to seeing in a TV studio. However, he has dipped his toe into club management. He was at Sunderland between 2006 and 2008 and then at Ipswich Town between 2009 and 2011. He was also in the dugout for short spells as Assistant  Manager at Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest. In 2013 he became Assistant Manager of the Republic of Ireland under Martin O'Neil, he was there for 5 years.

Parker played for seven English clubs in a 20-year career before moving into management. His first managerial appointment was in a caretaker role at Fulham, and then permanently, in 2019, he secured promotion back to the EPL via the playoffs. A tough 2020/21 EPL season saw Fulham relegated back to the Championship, and Parker left West London by mutual consent. Immediately, Parker was appointed at AFC Bournemouth, and he guided the South Coast club back to the EPL. After four games in the top flight (W1, L3) that included a 9-0 defeat by Liverpool, he spoke publicly about his frustrations at the club's transfer policy and added that they were unequipped for the EPL; three days later, he was sacked.

Chris Wilder built his reputation at Sheffield United after spells with Halifax, Oxford United and Northampton Town. Two promotions saw the club back in the top tier of English football in 2019. In his first season in the EPL, the club surprised many with their style of play, and they ended the campaign in hugely creditable 9th place. The 2020/21 season was more challenging, and in March 2021, Wilder was sacked. The club went on to finish bottom of the league and was relegated back to the Championship. Nine months later, Wilder was back in football at Middlesbrough; he signed a 30-month contract in the North East. The 2022/23 season did not get going for Wilder or his players, and Middlesbrough terminated his contract. Unconfirmed reports said that his relationship with the owner, Steve Gibson, had also broken down.

The Baggies Next Manager Betting Diary Timeline

The betting odds for The Next West Bromwich Albion Manager will often see some fluctuation and speculation of who will take over the hot seat when Carlos Corberan departs the job he has held since October 2022. Here is a round-up of the Next ‘Club’ Manager Betting Timeline from our OLBG News feed 

26th October 2022

24th October 2022

13th October 2022

Leam Richardson (3/1) seems a strange choice to be heading the next West Bromwich Albion manager odds. 

His Wigan side sits in a healthy 9th place in the Championship. Bromsgrove-born Gary Rowett (3/1) may fancy a return to the midlands, having managed Birmingham City, Derby and Stoke.
