West Bromwich Albion fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to the departure of Oliver Burke on loan to Celtic.

Burke has moved to Celtic in the Scottish Premiership from West Brom in the Championship in England on loan until the end of the season.

The 21-year-old winger joined the Baggies from RB Leipzig in the summer of 2017 for a transfer fee reported by The Guardian to be worth £15 million.

The Scotland international winger was able to make just two starts in the Premier League for the Baggies last season and played just 46 minutes in the Championship for Darren Moore’s side this campaign, according to WhoScored.

West Brom fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to Burke’s loan move to Celtic.

Burke is a very good and promising young winger, but he has struggled for playing time and needs a run of games.
