It has taken two games to become one of the most outstanding pieces of West Bromwich Albion and the fans of the English club are already beginning to demand the continuity in the club of the Turkish international on loan from Celta and wonder why the incorporation of the midfielder is not he did it long before Sam Allardyce’s team slumped to the bottom of the league table. Despite giving the surprise last weekend by drawing with Manchester United, the Thrubs are in serious danger of losing their place in the Premier League. The Celtic footballer seems determined to avoid it as he revalues himself as a player. That was the goal of Celta when they agreed last January to let him go on loan without a purchase option from the WBA.
Okay arrived in England on the night of February 1, when the winter market was closing. Celta had accepted the player’s interest in looking for the minutes of play that he did not have before the extraordinary season that Renato Tapia was doing in Vigo. The Turkish international made his debut for West Bromwich Albion in the closing minutes of the game against Tottenham. A week later, Allardyce included him in the starting team that stopped the second-placed in the Premier. United did not go from a draw to a goal on their visit to The Hawthorns, from where the first praise for the Celtic came.
Thus, social networks were filled with comments requesting the WBA owners to try to sign Okay Yokuslu. “Whatever happens next season, the first thing we have to do is sign a defensive midfielder. If that player is well and decides that he wants to stay with us it will be fantastic, if not we will have to find someone with similar characteristics that forms the backbone of the team, “wrote a WBA fan on Twitter after the point added against the powerful United.
In his debut as a starter, the Turk served as the sole defensive pivot, ahead of four defenders and as the closing of the four midfielders that his coach chose to contain the Mancunian champion.
“Brilliant performance. I wish we had hired him in the summer because he is exactly what we have needed in the midfield during all this time ”, stressed another WBA supporter in reference to an Okay who will have to return to Vigo when the season ends, as he recalled a couple of years ago weeks Felipe Miñambres, Celta’s sports director, referring to the farewell message that the player transmitted to Celtism.
West Bromwich is now penultimate in the Premier, with 13 points in 24 games, and has salvation twelve points away. The challenge of permanence is very complicated and a demotion would reduce to a minimum the options of Okay’s signing for the English team. The Turkish international, however, is becoming known in the English league and his revaluation would make it easier for Celta to start listening to offers for his transfer.
