West Brom took to Twitter on Thursday to wish former striker Mbaye Diagne a happy birthday.
And a number of Baggies fans were quick to flock to the official post, with some even throwing in the suggestion of bringing him back to The Hawthorns in the New Year.
West Brom signed the Senegal international back in January on loan for the rest of the season with an option to buy.
Unfortunately, Diagne couldn’t prevent the Baggies from returning straight back to the Championship, scoring three times in 16 appearances, so the permanent clause wasn’t activated.
He’s now back with Galatasaray, where he has found the back of the net on three occasions in 14 games, whereas West Brom, now managed by Valerien Ismael, sit third in the second tier.
Baggies fans react
West Brom’s post regarding Diagne caught the attention of these Baggies supporters, with a selection of responses available to view below, where one fan called him a ‘monster’ – the 6 foot 4 target man did win over three aerial duels per game as a Baggie after all…
