West Bromwich Albion could reportedly turn to the Preston North End boss.
Preston North End fans are reacting to reports Alex Neil is high on West Bromwich Albion’s shortlist of candidates to succeed Darren Moore.
Moore was sacked as Baggies manager on Saturday after losing further ground on the Championship’s top three.
And according to Sky Sports, Neil is a strong contender to take over at the Hawthorns.
The Scot has previously won promotions with Hamilton Academical and Norwich City and led Preston to seventh last season on one of the second tier’s smallest budgets.
With 10 games left to play, a play-off place remains again within the Lilywhites’ grasp.
And those of a Preston persuasion, understandably, do not want to see Neil jump ship to West Brom.
This is what they’re saying on Twitter…
Slavisa Jokanovic remains the favourite to become West Brom’s new manager, with the BBC reporting that further talks between the Serbian and the Baggies took place on Monday.
Like Neil, Jokanovic also has two promotions on his CV, with Watford and Fulham – the latter as recently as last summer.
Could Neil leave Preston for West Bromwich Albion?
