Albion favourite Robert Koren has pleaded with his former club to keep hold of Carlos Corberan and back the head coach to push for promotion next season.
Championship title-winning midfielder Koren, 43, is confident Albion can repeat the trick of the Slovenian’s first full season in the Black Country, where they responded from play-off heartache to go one better. Koren, who made 149 appearances in three-and-a-half years at The Hawthorns, says Albion must do “everything they can” to ensure Corberan remains as head coach next term – after Leicester, who are admirers, confirmed Enzo Maresca’s departure to Chelsea.
“They definitely need to do everything they can to keep hold of the manager, give him some budget to spend to bring in new players and build the atmosphere, they have to do everything they can to keep him if they are to bounce back next season.” The 61-cap Slovenia international added: “I remember my time in England was similar to their situation, so my first six months we got in the play-offs and lost in the final.
