Valencia has named Carlos Corberan as head coach on a two-and-a-half-year deal following the Spaniard’s departure from West Bromwich Albion, the struggling La Liga club said. Corberan spent three years at Leeds United as its Under-23 coach and a member of Marcelo Bielsa’s backroom staff before becoming Huddersfield Town manager in 2020. “Carlos Corberan becomes the new Valencia CF coach until 2027,” Valencia said in a statement on Tuesday. “The club has informed West Bromwich Albion FC of the execution of the exit option stipulated in his contract to leave the English club.” Corberan replaces Ruben Baraja, who was sacked on Monday, with Valencia second from bottom in the standings on 12 points with only two wins in 17 league games and four points from the safety zone.
