This is part of a regular series from our panel of West Brom Super Fans. Each week, our Super Fans will deliver their verdicts on the biggest talking points and news stories around The Hawthorns.

West Brom are reportedly interested in signing QPR winger Bright Osayi-Samuel and could target him whether they are playing Premier League football or not next season.

That’s according to the Express & Star, who report that Luke Dowling and Slaven Bilic have drawn up a list of transfer targets who they’ll pursue dependent upon which league they are playing in once this season concludes.

Osayi-Samuel has enjoyed a good season at Loftus Road, proving he is more than good enough to play for a top team in the Championship.

However with the fact that he’s 22-years-old and has steadily improved over the course of the 2019/20 season, it wouldn’t be farfetched to suggest that he could be good enough to play in the Premier League.

We asked our panel of West Brom Super Fans for their thoughts on seeing the club being linked with Osayi-Samuel.

Here is what they had to say:

It seems that although not many of our Super Fans admit they know a great deal about Osayi-Samuel, they would be in favour of signing him.

Osayi-Samuel has scored six goals and supplied eight assists in 32 appearances across all competitions for QPR this season, playing mainly on the right-wing.

That would suggest that Bilic and Dowling are eyeing him to potentially replace Matt Phillips in the long-term.

However, Osayi-Samuel can also feature on the left-hand side of the attack so could be a replacement for Grady Diangana and Callum Robinson once their loan deals expire.

In other West Brom news, there’s been an update on Filip Krovinovic’s loan spell at The Hawthorns.
