Sam Allardyce is on a massive bonus to keep West Brom in the Premier League this season.

The Daily Mail says Allardyce is in line for a £2million bonus if he keeps West Brom in the Premier League as he returned to management following Slaven Bilic's sacking.

The former England manager has agreed a deal at the Hawthorns until at least the end of the season. There is an option for the contract to be extended by a further 12 months if he manages to steer the club to safety.

He will be assisted by Sammy Lee, his close friend and long-time right hand man.

Allardyce, who had been set to go on a family holiday to Dubai before West Brom called, has been offered a hugely lucrative remuneration package by the Baggies, which is understood to include a stunning £2m payment to keep the club in the top-flight.

The 66-year-old, who has been out of work since Everton sacked him in May 2018, has never been relegated as a Premier League manager.
