James Morrison highlights West Brom need for wingers and patience in the window | OneFootball

James Morrison says West Brom must recruit wingers, with work under way to address a lack of senior width before the new season. Albion’s campaign is three Saturdays away.

“Well, obviously, we need to get some wingers in.” “We haven't got one at the moment. But there's a lot of work going on behind the scenes. So I'm pretty comfortable.” He was speaking to ExpressAndStar.com.

Jed Wallace was released at the end of his contract and Karlan Grant chose not to renew. Mikey Johnston remains at the club but did not travel to the Portugal training camp as he continues his recovery from a long-term injury.

Isaac Price, who can operate from the left, filled the role in Friday’s 4-1 win over Bromley in Portugal. Academy graduate Harry Whitwell started on the right. Ollie Bostock, 19, impressed off the bench and set up the late fourth in the Algarve.

“And we're all working together to get the right players in, at the right time. We have to be a little bit smart and patient.” An extended World Cup, which drew to a climax on Sunday night, has been pointed to elsewhere as behind a delay in transfer business, and Morrison agrees.

“I've heard different managers speak. And they're saying the same thing. We're all in the same position, it looks.” “Like I say, again, you've just got to be patient for the right one.”
