West Bromwich Albion have launched their search to replace technical director Dan Ashworth.
The Express & Star says he Baggies hope to keep Ashworth until the end of the season before he leaves to take up his new role in charge of the national football centre. And his top priority in his final months at The Hawthorns will be to lead the process to recruit his successor.
Albion also want Ashworth, who heads the club's scouting and recruitment department, to remain in charge for the January transfer window.
