'He can be happy': James Morrison on West Brom's Jed Wallace with winger set for contract call

James Morrison insists Jed Wallace can be happy with his contribution to Albion’s survival - with a decision looming over the winger’s future.

Wallace, who arrived at Albion in 2022 from Millwall on a free transfer - made a return to the squad on Saturday for the final game of the season.

He battled back from an injury to come off the bench as Albion closed out the campaign with a 2-1 defeat at Sheffield Wednesday.

Wallace penned a four year deal when he arrived at the club - which expires this summer and he is one of a handful of attacking players whose contracts are up.

Daryl Dike, Josh Maja and Karlan Grant are three of the other forward players who are awaiting news on their future.

Morrison has refused to be drawn on the specifics regarding the out of contract players - and that was again the case after the defeat in Yorkshire.

However, the Baggies boss did go on to say Wallace can be happy with his contribution to Albion’s end of season run that ensured survival.

He said: “There is a process and talks at the end of the season are ongoing.

“I can’t give an answer yet but Jed has been a brilliant servant.

“He was probably one of the driving forces early on in this little run, we had performances that were like the Jed Wallace of old really, and he can be happy with that.”

Despite not giving specifics on the out of contract players - Morrison insisted there is a need for change this summer given where Albion have ended the season.

He added: “It needs to change because we’re not happy with this season.

“We have got to continue to improve and that will be the case.

“I know what is needed, I think the club know and we will be working hard to get that right.”
