Nouble leaves West Ham

West Brom have agreed an initial one-month loan deal with West Ham for 18-year-old forward Frank Nouble.

Baggies boss Roberto Di Matteo was on the hunt for a new forward due to Ishmael Miller’s ankle injury and Jerome Thomas’ suspension.

“Frank is an exciting, young player who I am delighted to welcome to the club,” Di Matteo told West Brom’s  official website.

“He can play in any of the three forward positions – down the middle, wide left or wide right – and we hope the next month is a fruitful one for the club and Frank.

“His main attributes are that he’s powerful, quick and good on the ball but we mustn’t forget he is still very young.”
