Danny Imray can save his career at West Brom as Crystal Palace transfer intentions shared
Danny Imray was vital for West Bromwich Albion as they avoided relegation from the Championship last season.
Arriving on loan from Crystal Palace in January, the versatile full-back initially endured a difficult start to life in the Black Country.
However, this was the same for the Albion in general, who were dragged into relegation trouble during Eric Ramsay's dismal stint at the helm.
Enter James Morrison, who guided the Baggies through a 10-match unbeaten run heading into the final day - securing safety at a relative canter despite a two-point deduction imposed by the EFL.
Imray would perform at an extremely high level during this run, fitting into Morrison's 4-4-2 formation seamlessly.
Now, fans in the Black Country are awaiting news on his future, and may have been given a big hint after the latest from Crystal Palace.
What is the latest on Danny Imray at Crystal Palace?
With Pierre Sage taking over from Oliver Glasner this summer, Palace have attempted to keep a similar style in the dugout.
The Daily Mail and Bobby Manzi have reported that the Eagles are considering the future of Maxence Lacroix, who is eyed by Chelsea.
Exits are also mentioned for Jesurun Rak-Sakyi, alongside contract talks for Daichi Kamada and Dean Henderson.
But, there is not a single mention of Imray, suggesting that he sits in Palace's plans for the coming year - potentially as a back-up for Daniel Munoz, who made 46 apperances under Glasner last term.
After such a productive spell at The Hawthorns, Imray will have some important discussions to have with his advisors, regarding just what he wants next season.

With Palace not having a back-up for Munoz, Imray may well fill that role next term.
But the question he will be asking himself, is whether that is what is best for his career.
Should he move back to West Brom, he would be one of the first names on the teamsheet, and would start almost every week.
Even with added Europa League football at Selhurst Park, Munoz is likely to keep his spot when fit, given he is one of the best in that position.
A season as a back-up to Munoz could be valuable, but it could also break him if not handled correctly with limited minutes.
At his age and stage of career, a move to West Brom to become their main man is exactly what Imray needs, it's just down to him to realise that after several loans.
