The 25-year-old Nigerian has endured a challenging first term with the Baggies after Corberan made him last summer’s sole permanent addition as a free transfer.
Two serious ankle injuries, one at Bristol City in September and one at Sunderland in December which required surgery, have left Maja kicking his heels in the treatment room this season.
But the former Sunderland, Fulham and Bordeaux frontman is back in time for the final games of the Championship campaign and, should Albion seal their place, next month’s play-offs.
West Brom might well view this rumoured transfer target as a long-term replacement for Mowatt if the former Leeds United man does leave this summer or sometime in the future, with the 20-year-old in question tipped to become even more of a star as he grows.
