Tony Pulis has decided that West Bromwich Albion need to offload Callum McManaman quickly this summer.

West Bromwich Albion are now willing to cut their losses on Callum McManaman, according to a report in the Express and Star.

McManaman joined West Brom back in 2015, but he has never been able to nail down a starting place at the Hawthorns.

More recently, the winger has been loaned out to Sheffield Wednesday.

However, McManaman has slipped out of favour at Hillsborough and generally been used as a covering option.

West Brom are now preparing to offload the 26-year-old in the summer transfer window.

The Baggies were reportedly initially hoping to recoup most of the £4.75 million they paid to bring McManaman in, but they have realised they may have to drop their asking price to raise interest.

West Brom are now prepared to offload McManaman at a reduced price, to free up space in their squad.

Baggies boss Tony Pulis is keen to add quality to his squad this summer, and wants to get McManaman off the wage bill, to increase his budget.
