West Brom have been dealt an injury blow with the news that Karlan Grant will be out for the next five to six weeks with a cracked bone in his foot.
The 23-year-old suffered the injury ahead of Albion’s Premier League match against Arsenal on January 2 – a game in which Sam Allardyce’s team were beaten 4-0 at the Hawthorns.
Grant joined the Baggies from Huddersfield in October in a deal that could eventually be worth a reported £15million.
He has made 12 appearances and scored one goal – in the 1-1 draw at Brighton shortly after his arrival at the club.
