Carlos Corberan: West Bromwich Albion appoint ex-Huddersfield Town boss

Championship strugglers West Bromwich Albion have named former Huddersfield boss Carlos Corberan as their new head coach on a two-and-a-half-year deal.

The 39-year-old Spaniard, who succeeds Steve Bruce at The Hawthorns, has been without a club since leaving Greek side Olympiakos in September.

Corberan resigned as Huddersfield boss in July, having guided them to last season's play-off final.

He joined Olympiakos on 1 August but was sacked 49 days later.

"Carlos was in our thoughts from the very beginning of the recruitment process and our admiration of his qualities only grew on meeting him," said chief executive Ron Gourlay.
