James Morrison may have played his last game for West Bromwich Albion, according to the Express & Star.

Morrison, along with fellow West Brom attacking midfielder, Nacer Chadli, was due to return from injury in March.

But the Express & Star reports that neither of the pair are expected to feature before the international break at the end of the month.

The newspaper adds that a mid-April return is most likely for both Morrison and Chadli, who have been missing since September and December respectively, with Chadli the closest to making a comeback.

And considering that Morrison’s contract expires at the end of the campaign, any further setback could rule him out until then.

Despite his long absence, it is unlikely that Morrison would be short of suitors and may favour a move elsewhere if West Brom are relegated from the Premier League, even if they try to keep him.

Scottish champions Celtic were linked with a move for the 31-year-old last season, although he has previously expressed a desire to play for their Old Firm rivals, Rangers.
