West Brom have confirmed the appointment of Darren Moore as the club’s new head coach.

The 44-year-old former Albion defender has landed the job on an “improved and extended contract” having been given the role on a temporary basis following Alan Pardew’s dismissal at the start of April.

Moore’s impressive spell as caretaker boss saw him steer West Brom to three wins – including victories against Manchester United and Tottenham – and two draws in six Premier League matches, staving off relegation until the last week of the season and restoring some pride after a miserable campaign both on and off the pitch.
