Liverpool coach John Heitinga has emerged as a frontrunner for the vacant manager's job at West Bromwich Albion.
The 41-year-old Dutchman has made a big impression at Anfield under manager Arne Slot who appointed his compatriot with a nod to Heitinga's Premier League experience.
He had previously played for Everton and Fulham before working alongside David Moyes as a coach at West Ham last season and his potential departure would be felt by Slot and his playing staff among who he has proved a popular figure.
Hetinga was previously in charge at Ajax for a brief spell when he guided them to third place during a period of upheaval before joining West Ham then pursuing the option to join Slot at Liverpool. West Brom believe that, despite the blip at Ajax, he has the potential to prove himself as a top manager in his own right.
They want a bright thinker to succeed Carlos Corberan, who left for Valencia at Christmas, and view Heitinga as a man who can take them out of the Championship and back into the Premier League.
Slot lavished praise on Heitinga earlier this month admitting that the young coach has exceeded his expectations so far at Anfield.

'One of the reasons why we work together is because we have so much in common, if it's about playing style, game model or the changes we make during the game.

'John Heitinga is now here with me for the first half season and I couldn't have wished for more,' said the Liverpool boss. 'Very, if I say, kingslot96 talented, I do not even rate him high enough because he's more than that already, he's been a head coach himself but he's still young.
'He grew into our staff from the start in a very good manner. He has the same idea about football, that's why I chose him to come to us as well. But the way he is with the boys is very positive. All the things we do we do together.
'John has played many games in the Premier League and last season he was an assistant coach at West Ham, so brings experience as a player, but also as an assistant in this league.
'He worked with someone that I know really well, and the two of us have quite a similar playing style, so I think it's not going to take long for him to understand exactly what we want with the players.'
