How Jamaldeen Jimoh-Aloba can help West Brom thrive next season after transfer latest
West Bromwich Albion could seek to benefit from Jamaldeen Jimoh-Aloba's loan spell.
The 19-year-old completed a move to The Hawthorns in January as James Morrison looked to add to his squad.
It was exciting to get the 2006-born talent back after previously departing B71 for Bodymoor Heath as a youngster.
That was ultimately short-lived as the Baggies didn't truly see the best out of him in the second half of the season.
There was plenty of frustration aimed towards the teenager and many were happy to see his temporary deal come to an end.
Jimoh-Aloba could actually prove to be the key for West Brom to improve moving into the new campaign.
West Brom can learn from Jamaldeen Jimoh-Aloba with next transfer
There is a need for Albion to hit the ground running after so much annoyance last year.
Falling towards the relegation zone and needing a late run to avoid the drop just isn't good enough.
Morrison helped to turn the tide, but didn't really get the help he would have hoped for from Jimoh-Aloba.
The attacking midfielder failed to get on the scoresheet in 11 appearances and truly didn't bring much to the table.
That could act as the perfect lesson for everyone at The Hawthorns as another Villa loanee could come through the door.
West Brom News covered interest in a potential loan deal for George Hemmings, as reported by Steve Tudgay reported via Full Throstle on Monday.
The Baggies are monitoring him as a potential temporary addition largely because of his creativity and ball-carrying ability.
That has been met by frustrated Albion fans who don't want another academy product from Villa Park, but this time could be different.
Why George Hemmings could be different to Jimoh-Aloba
The annoyance from supporters towards the Baggies hierarchy is understandable.
They want to see their own academy products given a chance rather than giving Aston Villa a chance to better theirs.
The problem is, someone like Hemmings could genuinely prove to be a difference-maker at The Hawthorns.
He is attracting rave reviews at Villa Park and has already featured four times across the Premier League and Europa League.
Unai Emery clearly rates him very highly, so it could actually prove to be a coup for Morrison to get hold of him.
Having already seen Jimoh-Aloba fail, it gives a perfect example of how to utilise these loan deals to benefit the Baggies rather than hold them back.
