May 4th talkSPORT wrote an article about Ryan Mason's future.

It is reported that Mason will not decide his future for the time being, and Mason will decide his future after the European tournament of Tottenham. The 33-year-old former Tottenham assistant coach is currently one of the main candidates for West Brom's head coach vacant.

However, according to talkSPORT, Mason's current focus is still on Tottenham's Europa League match. Tottenham has reached the final after a 3-1 home win over Bode last Thursday. It is reported that the second leg will be held on May 8, and Tottenham coach Postkoglu hopes to bring a trophy to this long-time championless team. Tottenham hopes to enter the UEFA Cup final in Bilbao on May 21, and Postkoglu does not want any interference.

So if West Brom wants to appoint Mason as their next official head coach, they will need to wait until later this month. This will be Mason's first full-time management job since retirement as a player. He retired in 2018 due to a serious head injury and soon joined Tottenham's coaching team. He served as interim head coach for Tottenham twice, when Mourinho was fired and acting head coach Stellini was fired. In 2024, he nearly became Anderlecht's head coach, but the two sides finally decided not to continue negotiations.

According to relevant media reports, he is also one of the contenders for the Swansea head coaching position of the Championship club. West Brom fired Tony Mobray in April for a poor record. According to talkSPORT, representatives of Queens Park Rangers coach Sifuentes have held talks with West Brom. Sifuentes was subsequently arranged for a leave, and the club CEO Christian Norri said "this is a disappointing situation for everyone".

West Brom ranked ninth in the Championship, just four points away from the upgraded play-offs. They will play in the English Football League for the fifth consecutive season, entering only one upgrade play-off in the past four years.
