Mikey Moore signs – How West Brom could start under Ryan Mason
Ryan Mason is set to become West Brom’s new manager.
It has been a lengthy search for Shilen Patel ever since he parted ways with Tony Mowbray towards the end of last season, but the Baggies are ready to look forward.
It has been reported that Mason has agreed a deal to become the new boss at The Hawthorns, with only the final details left to be ironed out.
Once in position, the boss will be eager to get to work on shaping his team in preparation for the new campaign.
Mason to turn to Tottenham ties
West Brom had a winter transfer window full of loss, with Carlos Corberan exiting The Hawthorns unexpectedly.
Alex Palmer left soon after, with the Baggies cashing in. While Joe Wildsmith and Josh Griffiths have taken the position between the sticks, an upgrade could be found within Mason’s links.
Josh Keeley spent the season on loan with Leyton Orient, making it to the League One play-off final but losing against Charlton.
The young Spurs goalkeeper has worked his way up from non-league and has been tipped for a step up, meaning this could be a match made in heaven.

Albion will have to retain a good core of their squad, also keeping PSR restrictions in mind and therefore, Darnell Furlong and Torbjorn Heggem could keep their places in the defensive line-up.
The Baggies are said to be keeping tabs on George Campbell, currently of CF Montreal, who has received a call-up to the US national team.
He could be joined by Gora Diouf, who is also on West Brom’s list of targets, having had an impressive season with FC Sion in the Swiss Super League.
Mikey Moore to follow Mason to West Brom
Isaac Price had an impressive start to life in the Black Country and will surely be keen to build upon that next season, alongside Alex Mowatt, who made 43 appearances across the campaign.
Jayson Molumby will likely sit deeper in a new three-man midfield, allowing Price and Mowatt the space to roam and control the game at a high tempo.
Mikey Moore has already been linked with a move to The Hawthorns and could well follow Mason from Spurs.
The youngster registered a goal and an assist this term in Tottenham’s Europa League campaign, but is unlikely to get too many opportunities in a first-team setting next term due to pressure on the Lilywhites.
However, this could be a perfect opportunity to develop his experience in men’s football.
This season, few impressed at the top of the pitch, but strikers are notoriously hard to recruit, especially when trying to manage a budget.
Therefore, Mikey Johnston and Daryl Dike could occupy the last two positions in the final third.
The American has been linked with an exit, but after returning from a long-term blow and scoring towards the end of the season, he has all summer to prove himself to Mason.
