West Bromwich Albion has completed the permanent acquisition of midfielder Toby Collyer from Manchester United. The 22-year-old has committed to a four-year deal with the Championship club, marking his return to The Hawthorns after a successful loan spell earlier in the season.
Collyer initially joined West Brom on loan during the first half of last season, where he made 12 competitive appearances. Following his loan period, he moved to Hull City and played a significant role in their promotion to the Premier League. During his time at Manchester United, the midfielder appeared in 13 matches across all competitions in the 2024-25 campaign, including a debut in their home defeat against Liverpool.
The signing represents West Brom’s ninth summer acquisition, joining recent arrivals including Jimmy-Jay Morgan and Conor Townsend. Manager James Morrison’s pursuit of the player proved decisive, with Collyer expressing his enthusiasm for the move. The midfielder cited the club’s stature, his prior positive experience on loan, and Morrison’s confidence in bringing him back as key factors in his decision to make the transfer permanent.
