Shilen Patel to attend West Brom v Charlton after transfer deadline | OneFootball

According to ExpressAndStar.com, Shilen Patel will attend his first West Brom fixture of the season on Wednesday, as Albion host Charlton Athletic at The Hawthorns after Tuesday’s transfer deadline.

The meeting is Albion’s fourth league game and their second in front of home supporters. Charlton have opened with three wins from three.

The Florida-based owner has been a regular at games since his group, Bilkul Football WBA, bought a controlling stake in February 2024. He will see a remodelled squad under boss James Morrison. The summer window delivered 10 senior arrivals for a spend of around £15 million.

It follows three Championship fixtures and two EFL Cup ties, a win at Rotherham and a defeat at Newcastle.

His visibility contrasts with predecessor Guochuan Lai, who went several years at the end of his tenure without visiting The Hawthorns. Patel has often been joined by his cousin and chief marketing officer, Ashish Patel, and director Ethan Gobetz. Senior director of football finance Gobetz is a frequent presence.

Morrison’s side have won two of their opening three league matches, with a first defeat arriving at Middlesbrough last Saturday.
