West Brom: Carlos Corberan drops update on Daryl Dike situation.
Carlos Corberan has given an update on Daryl Dike’s recuperation from injury at West Brom.
The attacker has been out of action for the past eight months after rupturing his Achilles, his fourth serious injury since joining the club.
According to the Daily Mail, this January marks three years since his £7 million transfer to the Championship side.
During his tenure with the Midlands team, he has only made 29 league games and scored seven goals (all figures from Fbref).
The 24-year-old’s last outing for the club was a 2-2 draw against Ipswich Town in February.

Carlos Corberan provide Daryl Dike injury update
Dike’s return to fitness will be a significant boost for West Brom assuming he stays fit.
During his time at West Brom, Dike hasn’t got the opportunity to demonstrate his full potential.
It’s been a terrible period for him, and the club has been really supportive throughout his different injuries.
They will all be hoping that this is the start of a new chapter for him at the Hawthorns, and his return may be a significant boost to their promotion prospects.
Josh Maja is in excellent form to begin the season, and having someone of Dike’s caliber as competition might motivate him to play even better, or the two could establish an interesting combination of their own.
