That could present a route back into employment for Schofield, a highly regarded coach.

Corberán has already been joined in the West Midlands by another name familiar to Schofield.

Jorge Alarcón was Corberán’s assistant at Huddersfield when they reached the Championship play-off final at the end of the 2021/22 season before following him to Olympiacos and then the Hawthorns.

Schofield lost 19 of his 33 games in charge of Rovers.

He previously lasted just 69 days as Huddersfield boss.
