BREAKING: Pardew appointed West Brom boss

Alan Pardew has been appointed as West Brom’s new manager on a two-and-a-half-year deal.

The West Midlands club sacked Tony Pulis on 20 November after a run of just two wins in 21 Premier League games.

Pardew has been out of the game since being sacked by Palace in December 2016, and West Brom become the sixth Premier League club the 56-year-old has managed, after spells in the dugout at West Ham, Charlton, Southampton, Newcastle and Crystal Palace previously.

The new Baggies boss told the club’s official website:

“I’m thrilled with the opportunity Albion have provided and looking forward to getting to work with what I consider to be a talented group of players.

“The immediate challenge will be to get the results we need to pull ourselves up the table.

“But I’m aware that while I’m joining one of the great, traditional clubs of English football, it is one determined to go forward in the Premier League.

“It’s an exciting opportunity to play a part in that ambition.”
