Tottenham head coach Ryan Mason is expected to hold talks with West Brom this week about becoming their next manager.
The Championship side are to make a formal approach to Spurs in the coming days.
The 33-year old has emerged as Albion's preferred candidate after a proposed move for former QPR boss Marti Cifuentes fell through.
Albion sacked Tony Mowbray in April after they lost to Derby County. The result effectively ended their hopes of making the play-offs.
The loss to the Rams was their fifth in six games and eighth in 17 matches under Mowbray since he had returned to The Hawthorns in January.
Mowbray replaced Carlos Corberan, who joined Valencia after taking several months out of the game while he was treated for bowel cancer.
That saw him leave his post at Birmingham City last season but he is now on the road to recovery.
Mowbray revealed that his children were scared that he wasn't going to live as he battled cancer.
The potential hiring of Mason comes after Spurs won their first trophy by beating Manchester United in the Europa League final in Bilbao last week.
Mason has previously served as interim boss for the Lilywhites on two occasions - after they sacked Jose Mourinho in 2021 and when Cristian Stellini was relieved of his duties as head coach in 2023 following the sacking of Antonio Conte.
Mason went into coaching having made 53 appearances for Spurs as a player between 2008 and 2016.
His playing career was cut short in 2018 after he suffered a fractured skull that required surgery while playing for Hull City the previous year.
