- After joining from Celtic in January, Mikey Johnston has swiftly grown to be a fan favorite among West Brom supporters.
According to Fbref’s statistics, the winger has made six appearances in the Championship so far this season, including three starts, and he has assisted the Baggies with two goals.
Despite having difficulty getting playing time at Parkhead, the Ireland international has shown to be a valuable asset to Carlos Corberan’s team since going on loan.
It’s possible that supporters are aiming to extend the 24-year-old’s stay at the Hawthorns until the end of the current campaign with a permanent arrangement.
Nevertheless, the loan agreement with Celtic did not include an option to buy, thus it is unclear if a permanent agreement can be made.
Johnston arrived at Albion at the end of the January window, and Carlton Palmer has lauded his influence thus far.
According to the 58-year-old, claims that he has an attitude problem have not been accurate in his time at the Hawthorns thus far.
Under Carlos Corberan, West Brom is dominating the division and their allotted transfer money, and they are having an amazing season. Palmer
Amazing run; after 34 games, they are in fifth place with 56 points, in a play-off spot. “Norwich now and Preston have four points to make up to catch West Brom, so if they continue in this vein they’re going to end up in a play-off place, which will be a marvellous achievement. “Mikey Johnston, who they signed from Celtic in the January transfer window, is one of the players that is making an impression. He’s 24 years old, a mercurial talent, and he’s done very, very well.
