Grady Diangana transfer view as released West Brom man set for summer of interest

The winger, who spent six years at Albion, one on loan before joining permanently, struggled to show consistently after joining from West Ham.

He had good spells, and last season was arguably his best since he arrived from the Hammers in 2020.

But he had not done enough to earn a new contract, with Albion shifting him off the wage bill alongside John Swift and Semi Ajayi.

Now Diangana, who had been attracting interest from England and abroad back in January, is set for a busy summer of interest, but where will he end up?

Wolves were loosely credited with interest in January, while the likes of Leeds and Burnley have constantly been rumoured to have been in the frame for him over recent months.

And also in January, he was linked to a potential move to Spain.

Diangana no doubt has the talent that could impress in the Premier League, but physicality and inconsistency go against him to land a move such as that.

Could he stay in the Championship? Potentially. A side at the top end of the division may well be able to get the best out of him again and he could prove to be a real asset.

However, for me Diangana's most likely destination is abroad. Spain would suit his technical talent and with it being a less physical league, he may well flourish in La Liga.

A reunion with Carlos Corberan at Valencia is unlikely, but he could be a serious asset to someone.

And then there are the well trodden paths of the MLS and Saudi Arabia that could be available.

I would not be surprised in the slightest if club's out there were not having a look at Diangana right now, with a slower pace possibly suiting his game.

He may not have set the world alight at Albion and fans were happy to see him go - but that doesn't mean he will be short of suitors this summer.
