West Brom bargain punt could land them £17m in shrewd transfer
West Bromwich Albion will aim to continue fighting towards promotion to the Premier League as they enter a busy festive period.
The Baggies currently sit narrowly outside the top six, with a remarkable nine draws from their last 10 Championship outings leaving Albion supporters frustrated with Carlos Corberan over the style of play and tactics used within games.
In a stark contrast to last season, the Baggies’ struggles and slump down the second tier table has been owed to their poor record at The Hawthorns, with Carlos Corberan’s men ranking 21st for points won on their home patch, with only two victories secured from 8 games.
Meanwhile, Albion boast the second-best away record in the division, securing four wins and five draws from 10 trips on the road.
West Brom will be hoping that The Hawthorns can become a fortress again heading into a busy winter schedule, and that talisman Josh Maja can keep his regular goalscoring form going to keep the club looking up the table rather than over their shoulders.
The Nigerian international’s 10 goals so far this season in the Championship has led to interest arriving from an overseas club, and Albion have a decision to make about his future with such a significant transfer fee touted.
