The British sport website sportsdirect.com claims that West Brom Albion WBA , the Premier league club which has sacked their coach Steve Clark last night, are considering Carlos Queiroz as a replacement

“Former Real Madrid manager and Manchester United assistant Carlos Queiroz is an outsider for the West Brom job, SportsDirect News understands.

The 60-year-old is a vastly experienced coach at the top level, having managed Real Madrid and the Portuguese national team as well as having worked alongside Sir Alex Ferguson to great success at Old Trafford.

However, with Queiroz having recently guided Iran to next summer’s World Cup finals in Brazil, West Brom may face a fight to lure him full time to the Premier League.

The Baggies parted company with Steve Clarke on Saturday evening, and are hoping for a more experienced coach of Queiroz’s calibre to replace the Scot at the Hawthorns this season.

Several other candidates have already been linked with the post, and it may be that they will have to consider some more realistic alternatives to the Portuguese manager.”

This is not the first time that Queiroz is being mentioned as a candidate for a coaching job in England. Queiroz himself has always refused to comment on these speculative news and opted to focus on his job as the coach of Team Melli.
