Alan Pardew open to Premier League return despite more than four years since West Brom sacking

Alan Pardew has claimed that he would be interested in a move back to the Premier League over four years since his last job in England. The 60-year-old is now briefly in charge at CSKA Sofia having been out of management for a couple of years.

It was the first time the former Newcastle United boss found himself in charge of a team since he was ADO Den Haag boss between December 2019 and April 2020.
