Cifuentes discusses future as West Brom seeks QPR coach

Queens Park Rangers (QPR) head coach Marti Cifuentes is reportedly considering leaving the club following tensions with the board and dissatisfaction with the club's direction under CEO Christian Nourry. Cifuentes, who has successfully kept QPR in the Championship since his October 2023 appointment, has been linked with a move to West Bromwich Albion after their recent dismissal of Tony Mowbray. Representatives of Cifuentes have held talks with West Brom, though no formal approach has yet been made, and he remains under contract at QPR. The Spaniard has publicly expressed both contentment and ambition, stating he is happy at QPR as long as he is wanted, but also emphasizing the need for alignment within the club. Sources indicate that West Brom's interest in Cifuentes is strong, especially as his potential availability would mean no compensation is required. While Cifuentes plans to review his future with QPR's hierarchy at the end of the season, a departure appears increasingly likely given the ongoing discord.
