West Brom focus on Northern Ireland coach O'Neill

Northern Ireland manager Michael O'Neill is a top target for West Brom.

The Mirror says O'Neill is the man West Brom want if they sack Tony Pulis.

The Baggies slumped to a 4-0 defeat at home to Chelsea on Saturday, leaving manager Pulis on the brink.

Scotland have been given permission to speak to O'Neill, but won't be able to compete with the wages on offer in the Premier League.

The Scottish FA had already lined up a seven-figure package, doubling his salary of £500,000.

But a move to The Hawthorns could see O'Neill's wages treble to around £1.5million.
