West Brom may regret Sule call after Motherwell draw with Rangers
Eseosa Sule is one of the best academy prospects at West Brom.
The likes of Tom Fellows and Josh Griffiths have come through the doors at Halfords Lane in the recent past and star for the first team.
The 19-year-old will be looking to follow in their footsteps after his move from Celtic in 2023 and eventually make an impact on Ryan Mason but he will not get the chance right now.
The Scottish youngster was sent on loan to Motherwell, but his spell in Scotland does not seem to have got off to the best start.
West Brom loanee Sule doesn’t feature in Motherwell draw v Rangers
West Brom’s Sule featured in three of the Well’s four League Cup matches to start the season but was left on the bench for the 3-0 win over Morton (22 July).
He was then left out of the squad completely for the pre-season friendly with Hertha Berlin (26 July) and did not appear in it for the 1-1 draw with Rangers on Saturday (2 August).
According to supporters on social media, he is injured, but the lack of communication on that, if it is the case, is strange.

A loan was the best outcome for Sule’s development, as he will not get the first-team football that he needs to develop at The Hawthorns.
He may well end up featuring a lot this season for the Fir Park outfit, but the lack of an injury update is peculiar.
They may be waiting for tests on a problem, or it could just be a decision from the manager to leave the Albion starlet out, but until anything is confirmed, it remains to be seen.
Sule agreed fresh terms with the Baggies after notching nine goals and three assists in 24 matches in the youth ranks and was subsequently sent away on a temporary basis, as it was the best move for the player.

However, if his development is being hindered by not being able to get into the side, then it makes no sense for him to continue to be loaned out.
