The Charlton Athletic manager is the latest to be linked with the West Bromwich Albion vacancy.
Some Charlton Athletic fans are fearing the worst after reports emerged, via The Express & Star, that West Bromwich Albion hope to hold talks with Lee Bowyer.
West Brom remain on the hunt for Darren Moore’s permanent successor, four months after sacking him.
Meanwhile, Bowyer remains without a contract for the coming campaign – despite having led Charlton back to the Championship via the League One play-offs at the end of last month.
And that gives the London side little control over their manager’s fate and the following Addicks fans are acutely aware of the situation.
Not everyone is quite so pessimistic, mind.
West Brom were earlier said to have held talks with the former West Ham United manager, Slaven Bilic.
And Bowyer, who has been in senior management for little more than a year, would be a significantly less experienced choice.
But Londoner’s early success and potential for growth, at 42, is also likely to appeal to the Baggies.
Would Bowyer leave Charlton to join West Bromwich Albion?
