Carlos Corberan blown away by West Brom announcement this week

West Brom manager Carlos Corberan described West Brom supporters as “unbelievable” after an announcement was made on Thursday.

It was confirmed that the Baggies have sold over 20,000 season tickets for 2024/25 (15 August) with supporters turning out in their droves to hopefully cheer on another promotion push.

Now, in a message sent via the club’s website (16 August), Carlos Corberan has expressed how pumped up he is ahead of the club’s return to The Hawthorns when the Baggies host Leeds United on Saturday (17 August).

“Like I always say, West Bromwich Albion Football Club never stops growing, it’s unbelievable,” he said.

“This can only make you feel proud, not just me, but for everyone who works for the club. We know it gives you a level of responsibility and determination to compensate them for what they are giving to you. This is only ever a positive for us.”

West Brom take the next step

Josh Maja’s hat-trick against Queens Park Rangers in West Brom’s season opener is reason enough to get excited about the next few weeks. From the manager to the squad to the fanbase, things feel like they’re clicking into place for Albion right now. After a great start in the league, the Baggies will hope to make a big statement when they welcome Leeds in an early kick-off on Saturday.

It’s the kind of game that allows you to really lay down a marker to the rest of the league, which is what the gaffer wants to do.

Speaking of the boss, it can’t be overstated how encouraging his quotes are. It can be easy to get distracted by bigger clubs if you have a good start at a second-tier side. However, he really seems to have bought into the philosophy in the Black Country. He appreciates the culture, he understands it, and he seems as committed as ever.

In other news, the Baggies are monitoring the progress of a 22-year-old midfielder.
