Sherwood favourite as West Brom plan to name new manager Wednesday

West Bromwich Albion could name their new manager inside the next 72 hours.

The Express & Star says Albion hope to appoint a new head coach by Wednesday with former Tottenham boss Tim Sherwood still favourite to land the job.

Sherwood appears to be leading the race to succeed Pepe Mel after being interviewed on Friday but still faces competition with two more candidates set to speak to the Baggies in the next 36 hours.

The club plan to conclude interviews by tomorrow night before making a decision on Wednesday, after which they hope to tie up a contract quickly.
