Paul Jewell steps down from his role on the coaching staff at West Bromwich Albion just a week after joining the club, with Gerry Francis replacing him.

Paul Jewell has stepped down from his role as joint assistant manager of West Bromwich Albion after just a week at the club.

Jewell ended a two-year break from coaching to join up with Tony Pulis at The Hawthorns, arriving at the club alongside Dave Kemp earlier this month.

However, he has now performed a U-turn on his decision and will be replaced on the staff by Gerry Francis.

"Gerry and I have worked well together at both Stoke and Crystal Palace and it was always part of my plan for him to join me at Albion," Pulis told the club's official website.

"I value his insight and experience of the very highest levels of our game, and I'm delighted he is now on board. We have an agreement that we have employed in the past and suits us both."

Francis was also happy with the decision and stressed his desire to keep the club in the Premier League.

"I'm happy I have finalised a deal, and I'm looking forward to the challenge. I like the set-up. Albion have a good training ground, good facilities, but just as was the case at Stoke and Palace, it's vitally important for the club to retain Premier League status," Francis added.

"There's going to be a number of teams involved in the situation. We've had three decent results, but there's a lot of work to do with the side and Tony is obviously looking to strengthen if he can."

The Baggies are currently sit 14th in the Premier League table and face Everton in their next match on Monday.
