West Bromwich Albion have reportedly sacked Alan Irvine as manager.
Sky Sports suggests that the Baggies have endured the tenure of Irvine which commenced less than seven months ago.
Albion have experienced a bad run of late, having lost seven of their past nine Premier League outings, which sees them sitting 16th on the table.
56-year old Scottish tactician Irvine, who previously managed Preston North End and Sheffield Wednesday, took over from Pepe Mel in the summer but endured a difficult start to the season.
Under Irvine, West Brom won just four out of 19 matches and lost 10 to see them record only 17 points in the first half of the campaign.
It is believed that former Tottenham boss Tim Sherwood and ex-Stoke City and Crystal Palace manager Tony Pulis are the frontrunners to replace Irvine at The Hawthorns.
