According to The Telegraph, West Brom expect to have signed Mbaye Diagne and Okay Yokuslu on loan deals before Monday.

Sam Allardyce looks to have had a breakthrough in transfer negotiations, as two of his targets near a move to the Hawthorns.

The Baggies hope that Diagne – who has 94 career goals – can fly into England to undergo a medical within the next 24 hours.

Talks over a move to the Premier League for Yokuslu are continuing, as Allardyce hopes to wrap up a striker and a defensive midfielder.

The Telegraph add that the Turkey international has been chosen by West Brom over Leicester’s Hamza Choudhury, who was another potential signing.

Additionally, former Leicester attacker Ahmed Musa is currently training with the Baggies, and could join as a free agent until the end of the campaign.

West Brom are really struggling right now, and the crushing 5-0 defeat to Manchester City will have presumably dampened the squad’s spirits.

The Baggies are seven points from safety, and are also just three points off the bottom of the Premier League after Sheffield United remarkably beat Manchester United.

Hopefully, Diagne and Yokuslu will arrive in the Midlands and breathe new life into the place, because it’s very much needed.
