Ramsay's experience belies his age - West Brom owner

West Bromwich Albion owner and chairman Shilen Patel says Eric Ramsay's 'untypical' coaching experience for someone his age was a big reason why he was hired as the Championship club's new boss.

Ramsay, 34, has built a comprehensive and wide-ranging CV at Swansea City, Shrewsbury Town and in Chelsea's academy - where he became the youngest person in Britain to achieve the Uefa Pro License.

He was also assistant first-team coach at Manchester United under Erik ten Hag and had a spell in an international set-up with the Wales men's team.

Ramsay has arrived at The Hawthorns off the back of an impressive two-season stay with MLS side Minnesota United, taking them to their highest league finish of fourth in the Western Conference last term.
