West Bromwich Albion have finally seen the curtain fall on a turbulent season.

There has been so much frustration surrounding The Hawthorns this season that staying in the Championship was the biggest relief of all.

A final day defeat against Sheffield Wednesday was proof that the job was done and the foot could come off the gas.

Attention will shortly turn to the summer and what is going to be a massively important transfer window for James Morrison and Co.

The newly appointed head coach will first have to deal with potential departures, as we look at who could leave West Brom at the end of their contracts.

What has James Morrison said about expiring contracts at West Brom?

It was a busy season for the Baggies with plenty of low points that ultimately saw Ryan Mason and Eric Ramsay both depart.

The former midfielder came in on an interim basis, turned things around, and has reaped the rewards of that with a permanent role.

That means the inner workings of the Albion first team will come down to his leadership moving into the summer and beyond.

His first job will be to deal with the imminently expiring contracts that are on the table at The Hawthorns.

Morrison spoke out about that ahead of the final day, confirming that talks are already underway with certain individuals.

He said: “There are a couple that I have spoken to. But again that will be a process that we work together with and we see where we get to on that.”

There are many key names approaching the end of their deals with Jed Wallace, just one approaching the end of his West Brom spell.

Whose contracts are expiring at West Brom?

There is likely to be a high player turnover in the Black Country as soon as the transfer window opens.

That can’t come as a surprise, given how poor this season has been overall, but it will be interesting to see how many depart when their contracts expire.

Wallace, Karlan Grant, Daryl Dike, Josh Maja, Max O’Leary and Joe Wildsmith are the six names whose contracts run out when the summer window gets underway.

There are various reasons that will be discussed for why certain players should or shouldn’t be offered new terms, but that is yet to be revealed in B71.
