Baggies striker Daryl Dike has been battling back to fitness once again

He has had an inmeasurably difficult time at The Hawthorns and you can do nothing but feel for him.

However, one thing Dike does still have on his side after a tough time at the club is his age.

When you think of Dike, some people are surprised with how young he still is.

At the age of 23, he has that age on his side and he still has a fair amount of time to go on his four-and-a-half-year deal, which runs out in summer 2026.

I think when it comes to the supporters, there are and will be some concerns when Dike does return and to be honest, the proof will be in the pudding.
