I'd say the Wimmer deal is dead in the water but Janssen might not be...Again, he's a young player with something to prove.
He's definitely got pace looking on
you -tube good age seems half decent , welcome to the Albion .
Birmingham mail reporting the undisclosed fee is rumoured to be £18m.
Hope not, as that's a lot to risk on an unproven youngster.
If it was that high I doubt it would be undisclosed as it would be a club record fee and we'd be shouting it from the rooftop in an attempt to sell more season tickets.
Hopefully, it will be like mp whose undisclosed fee was reported as 6m, but tp revealed on radio WM that it was half that. And to be honest after going to Germany for 13m and then making only 5 starts about 9m makes sense.
Would have preferred a loan to permanent move, but in any event welcome to the baggies OB, I hope you have brilliant future with us.
Sky Saying the fee could rise to £15m, I don't think that's too bad considering the market right now.Quote:

Last year a lot was being said about his potential and he surprisigly went to Germany. Just how good is he?
A fine acquisition and looks a very bright prospect indeed. A big winger with pace and confidence and a great age. I just hope that Pulis plays him from the start and subject to Chadli sorting himself out, we could have some genuine width and attacking intent down the flanks. The Lad will of course have to learn quickly to track back and defend, otherwise he will never get a start!
With the number of wide players we now have (Phillips, Burke, McClean, Chadli, McManaman, plus Brunt, J-Rod & HRK can play there) then surely we have the numbers for Leko to go out on loan now, of all our youngsters he probably needs it the most.

I agree. However he is a right winger so where does Phillips fit in or have we made yet another major blunder?
A brilliant acquisition BUT a right winger so where does that leave Phillips!!!
