Valencia are working on bringing West Bromwich Albion manager Carlos Corberan to the club after parting ways with Ruben Baraja on Monday.
Tuesday’s edition of Marca claims Corberan has reached an agreement with the La Liga side.
The report claims the Spaniard has a €2.8m release clause in his contract and Los Ches have informed West Brom that they will activate it.
If there are no last-minute surprises, he should join Valencia and sign a deal until 2027. Marca add his current assistants at the Championship side, Jorge Alarcon, Rafa Aranda and Damia should also follow Corberan to Mestalla.
Over at AS, they state the manager has £2m [€2.4m] release clause in his Baggies deal. The Spanish club are not planning to trigger the clause and instead negotiate a deal with West Brom.
Valencia negotiated with West Brom from Monday afternoon and reached an agreement in principle late night for a fee close to his clause. They are waiting for the Championship side’s American owners to give the approval, after outlining an agreement with Corberan.
AS indicates this could arrive in the next few hours as today is the ‘key day’ for Valencia to close the deal for Corberan.
Although there’s conflicting claims about the clause, Los Ches have made advances in appointing Corberan as their next manager.
