Latest West Brom transfer news: Leeds player sought, Andi Weimann update, loan agreement for striker expires

West Brom are on cloud nine right now after a 4-1 drubbing of Blackburn Rovers on Saturday afternoon, in a result which keeps them in fifth position in the Championship table.

And with a takeover thought to be edging closer, with Florida-based businessman Shilen Patel in talks with the Baggies hierarchy, there may be light in the end of the tunnel both on and off the pitch

Albion have two weeks left, however, of the transfer window to make some moves to strengthen their hand for the remaining months of the season – let’s round up the latest transfer news from the weekend.

Corberan speaks out on potential Bristol City transfer

Most managers tend to not speak about players from other clubs that they have been linked with, but Carlos Corberan was happy to talk about potential Baggies signing Andi Weimann this weekend.

As revealed by BristolLive before the weekend, Albion and Bristol City were in talks to send the 32-year-old Austria international to The Hawthorns, with Corberan keen to add some more depth in the attacking areas of the pitch.

“He’s a player that I know that the club is working on to make it happen, and if at the end the club can finish the work and we can add him to the club I will give you my full opinion if this happens,” Corberan said after the Blackburn win, per BirminghamLive.

“It still didn’t happen but he’s a player the club are working to make it happen.

West Brom join chase for Leeds attacker

The Baggies are seemingly in the mix for another attack-minded player as well as Weimann, but they will likely be restricted to either loan moves or cheap deals because of their financial situation without a takeover for now.
