The latest update on West Brom’s transfers involves manager Carlos Corberan discussing the upcoming January window and the potential business he aims to conduct.
Corberan expresses the urgency to find a replacement for Matt Phillips, who is sidelined due to a season-ending hamstring injury, and also addresses the absence of striker Josh Maja, who underwent ankle tendon surgery.
With Grady Diangana likely to be away at AFCON, Corberan prioritizes recruiting a winger to compensate for Phillips’ versatile contributions.
Reflecting on the challenges posed by injuries and potential departures, Corberan emphasizes the need to be prepared for uncertainties, especially with ongoing takeover talks adding another layer of complexity.
Despite the off-field developments, Corberan stresses the club’s responsibility to cover essential positions, particularly Phillips’ absence, and evaluates the options for replacing other departing players.
The manager acknowledges that the extent of their activity in the transfer market depends on the available resources and emphasizes the importance of effective communication with the club to address the team’s needs.
