West Bromwich Albion are currently in discussions to secure the signing of Théo Le Bris, a talented winger from FC Lorient with connections to Sunderland manager Regis Le Bris. The 21-year-old, who has gained experience in Ligue 1 over the past few years, is versatile in his playing positions, capable of slotting in across the midfield or at full-back. With a reported market value of £1.7 million, Le Bris presents a promising option for the Baggies as they look to strengthen their squad before the transfer deadline.
According to sources, West Brom are keen on bringing Le Bris on board and have made progress in convincing the player to join their project at The Hawthorns. Negotiations with Lorient are ongoing, with the club prioritizing the signing of a defensive midfielder before finalizing a deal for Le Bris. Despite facing financial challenges and losing key players, West Brom remain determined to make strategic signings to enhance their squad depth for the upcoming Championship season.
Should the transfer be completed, Le Bris would represent West Brom’s 10th signing of the summer, joining the likes of Callum Styles, Uroš Račić, and Paddy McNair in bolstering their ranks for the challenges ahead. With ambitions of a top-six finish in the league, the Baggies are leaving no stone unturned in their pursuit of talented additions to their squad.
