Search is on for new West Brom manager after Tony Mowbray sacked
Assistant Head Coach Mark Venus has also departed the club
Last updated 22nd Apr 2025
West Brom are searching for a new manager after parting company with Tony Mowbray.
The 61-year-old was dismissed after just three months of his second spell in charge.
It comes after yesterday's (21 April) 3-1 home defeat by relegation-threatened Derby County.
The former Blackburn Rovers and Middlesbrough boss was reappointed as Albion head coach in January.
He replaced Carlos Corberan who left the club to take over at Spanish top-flight side Valencia.
Mowbray's assistant Mark Venus has also left, with former Albion midfielder James Morrison placed in interim charge.
It would now take an unlikely set of results for West Brom to have a chance of making the top six.
In a statement, the club said: "The club would like to place on record its thanks to Tony and Mark for their efforts – but has made the decision to part company following a series of poor results.
"Tony and Mark will forever be welcome at The Hawthorns and their contributions to the club winning the 2007/08 Sky Bet Championship title will never be forgotten.
"Everyone at Albion wishes Tony and Mark all the very best in the future.
"James Morrison will oversee first-team affairs on an interim basis, assisted by Damia Abella and Boaz Myhill.
"The process of recruiting a new Head Coach is now under way."
