West Brom boss Carlos Corberan has reportedly agreed a deal to take over a top European side. After a brief spell in Greece with Olympiacos, Corberan arrived at the Hawthorns in October 2022 and led them to the brink of the play-offs in his first campaign at the club.

The club again challenged for promotion last season but missed out on a trip to Wembley after losing to eventual play-off winners Southampton in the semi-final stage. However, despite yet another bright start that sees them seventh in the Championship table, Corberan's time in the West Midlands looks set to be over.

According to a report from Fabrizio Romano, Corberan has agreed a deal to replace Ruben Baraja at La Liga giants Valencia. The report claims the Spanish club have triggered Corberan's £2.5million release clause with an official announcement of the move expected imminently.
Carlos Corberan has reportedly agreed to leave West Brom to become Valencia manager. The Baggies currently sit seventh in the Championship after a promising start to the season. Valencia meanwhile are in the midst of one of their worst spells in the club's recent history.
Corberan spent time in Valencia's academy as a youth but never represented the club's first team before he hung up his boots to pursue a career in coaching at the age of 23. Valencia currently sit joint-bottom of the Spanish top flight following a dismal start to the campaign that has seen them win just two of their first 17 league fixtures.
