Alex Bradley hasn’t yet made his Championship debut for West Bromwich Albion but he’s impressing with Havant and Waterlooville in the National League
Friendship can go a long way in football and Havant and Waterlooville boss Lee Bradbury has certainly benefited from his relationship with the West Brom boss Darren Moore.
Because The Baggies coach obviously believes in Bradbury’s coaching talents, so much so that he was willing to loan one of his most talented youngsters to the non-league outfit during the summer transfer window.
And Alex Bradley, who has been in West Brom’s academy since the age of seven according to the Express and Star, has certainly made an impression for Havant and Waterlooville in the National League.
In six games, he has scored two goals already and made his second strike for The Hawks one to remember. Bradley took aim from 25 yards and smashed a stunning goal into the roof of the net to set Bradbury’s in-form outfit on their way to a 5-2 thrashing of Maidenhead.
And, reacting on Twitter, West Brom have taken the time to praise Bradley’s eye for the spectacular.
On this evidence, the 19-year-old midfielder appears to have a bright future at The Hawthorns. Worcester-born Bradley scored in West Brom’s 2-1 Checkatrade Trophy win away at Blackpool in September.
