West Brom finalise new forward loan agreement as statement released
West Brom have agreed a fresh loan agreement for a young forward at The Hawthorns.
The Baggies are blessed with plenty of forward options right now after bringing Will Lankshear and Adam Armstrong in during the winter transfer window.
Right now, the strength in depth across the front line is yet to fully click under Tony Mowbray, but they have shown signs of coming together in recent weeks.
As a result, it won’t come as a surprise to see the latest attacking loan deal being agreed and announced in B71.
West Brom announce Reyes Cleary loan extention
There is no secret of the talents coming out of the academy for West Brom in recent years, although few have broken through to the first-team.
Tom Fellows is a rare example of someone in the current squad at The Hawthorns who has managed to prove themselves this season.
There is hope that Cleary could go on to represent a useful asset for the Albion in the near future, which is why the youngster has gone out on loan.
The Baggies have now confirmed that the 20-year-old will remain with National League side Hartlepool United until the end of the season in a statement on their official website [26 February].
This comes after making eight appearances since moving to the North East on a temporary basis in January, where he has managed to score one goal.
West Brom need to put faith in academy stars
There have been plenty of key examples of players coming through the academy in the black country before going and succeeding elsewhere.
Morgan Rogers has been an example of this in the Premier League this campaign who only made one first team appearance for the Baggies before being poached by Manchester City.
| Stat (Premier League) | Morgan Rogers |
| Games played | 27 |
| Goals | 7 |
| Assists | 4 |
| Dribbles completed | 52 |
It is a similar story for Tim Iroegbunam who finds himself at Everton now and is just another name on a long list of departed talent from The Hawthorns.
Cleary will be hoping that he will go on to be successful in his career and Albion fans will hope that he will become a top player in B71.
