“Look elsewhere” – West Brom urged to swerve move for in-form League One attacker
The upcoming summer transfer window holds significant importance for West Bromwich Albion, especially under the ownership of Shilen Patel. Regardless of the division they find themselves in, whether it be the Premier League or the Championship, the club’s plans for the transfer market will be crucial.
Under the guidance of manager Carlos Corberan, who has led the team to a strong position in the table, West Brom will be looking to reinforce their squad and address any areas of weakness. Promotion to the Premier League would naturally provide greater financial resources and attract a higher caliber of players, but even if they remain in the Championship, the club will have ambitions of strengthening their squad for a promotion push in the following season.
Fans will be eagerly anticipating potential signings and the club’s transfer strategy as they look to build a competitive team capable of achieving their goals. With the summer window on the horizon, there’s plenty of excitement and anticipation among West Brom supporters as they await developments in the transfer market.

The recruitment team at West Bromwich Albion is facing a challenging task as they prepare for the upcoming summer transfer window, with uncertainty surrounding which division the club will be competing in. Despite this, they are diligently working on identifying potential targets and devising strategies for recruitment.
One player who has caught the attention of the club’s scouts is Josh Murphy of Oxford United. The 29-year-old winger, known for his impressive performances throughout the season, has played a significant role in Oxford’s push for a playoff spot. With six goals and four assists to his name, Murphy has proven himself to be a valuable asset for his team.
However, Murphy’s contract is set to expire in the summer, leading to speculation about his future. West Bromwich Albion, along with several other clubs, are reportedly monitoring his situation closely, indicating their interest in securing his services. If Murphy becomes available, he could potentially bolster Albion’s squad with his skill and experience on the wing.
As the summer transfer window approaches, the recruitment team at West Bromwich Albion will continue to assess their options and pursue potential signings that align with the club’s objectives, whether it be in the Premier League or the Championship.
It’s understandable that some West Brom fans may have reservations about pursuing Josh Murphy as a potential signing. The experience with Jacob Murphy’s loan spell at the club may still be fresh in their minds, and they may be hesitant to take a similar gamble on his twin brother.
Additionally, there are concerns about whether Josh Murphy’s performances in League One, while impressive, would translate effectively to the Championship, especially as a replacement for Mikey Johnston, who has been performing well during his loan spell.
With players like Matt Phillips returning from injury and emerging talents like Tom Fellows pushing for first-team opportunities, some fans may feel that investing in Murphy, particularly at 29 years old, may not be the best use of resources. Instead, they may prefer the club to explore other options in the transfer market.
Ultimately, the decision on whether to pursue Murphy or seek alternatives will depend on the club’s assessment of their squad needs and available transfer targets, as well as their overall transfer strategy heading into the upcoming season.
