West Brom will welcome back Ahmed Hegazi and Grady Diangana when the season does resume after the pair overcame their respective hamstring problems.
Having struggled to break into the team for much of the campaign, centre-back Hegazi was forced off before half-time against Wigan back in February. Meanwhile, things have been more serious for Diangana, with the winger only involved in 24 minutes of action since mid-December after a hamstring complaint which he aggravated after starting against Stoke City in January.

Will West Brom be in the Premier League next season?
Yes
No
However, boss Slaven Bilic gave a positive update on the pair when speaking to the Express & Star, explaining how they would both be ready to join in whenever is required and will have benefited from the enforced break that football is having right now.
As you would expect, this fitness update went down very well with the fans, particularly concerning Grady Diangana after he had scored five and registered the same number of assists in 21 games before his injury. Here we look at some of the reaction to the news…
Great news 👍
