UPDATE: West Bromwich Albion is moving quickly to secure a deal for midfielder Nectarios Triantis this January, as new head coach Eric Ramsay aims to reshape his squad. The Baggies are coming off a dramatic penalty shootout victory against Swansea City in the FA Cup, but their focus is now on improving their position in the Championship, where they currently languish in 18th place.
Ramsay, who was appointed just days ago, is preparing for a challenging first match at The Hawthorns against promotion contenders Middlesbrough this Friday. The urgency is palpable; West Brom must capitalize on the January transfer window to boost their chances of staying clear of relegation.
Reports from The Mirror indicate that Ramsay, who previously managed Triantis at Minnesota United, is eager to reunite with the talented 22-year-old. During his time in the MLS, Triantis made a significant impact, scoring three goals and providing two assists in just 10 appearances. His familiarity with Ramsay’s tactics could be crucial in helping West Brom regain form.
Triantis began his career in Australia with Western Sydney Wanderers and Central Coast Mariners before moving to Sunderland in 2023. He spent a notable period on loan at Hibernian, where he excelled in the 2024/25 season, tallying three goals and six assists in the Scottish Premiership. His diverse experience positions him as a valuable asset for the Baggies as they navigate a critical moment in their season.
With upcoming fixtures against relegation-threatened teams like Norwich City and Portsmouth, the addition of Triantis could provide the spark West Brom desperately needs. The pressure is mounting for Ramsay to deliver results quickly, especially after a rocky period under former boss Ryan Mason.
As the clock ticks on the January transfer window, West Brom fans are hopeful that a swift deal for Triantis could be just the boost the team needs to turn their season around. With critical matches on the horizon, every moment counts for the Baggies as they strive to rise in the standings and secure Championship safety.
Stay tuned as this story develops, and watch for official announcements regarding Triantis’s potential move to The Hawthorns.
