When West Bromwich Albion welcome Birmingham to The Hawthorns this weekend, it has the potential to be a very special day for one particular man in the Baggies squad, as it could be the game that seals Matheus Pereira’s permanent move to the West Midlands club.
West Brom will be obligated to buy Matheus Pereira on a permanent deal, should he make an appearance on Saturday against Birmingham City!

The Brazilian is on-loan from Sporting this season, but the Baggies have an obligation to sign him on a permanent deal, worth £9m. All details can be found in the Birmingham Mail, but in short, when the exciting midfielder has completed 45 minutes or more in 30 matches, and he currently sits on 29 games (Transfermarkt).
The fans are all desperate to just get the deal for the 23-year-old wrapped up. He’s proven to be a serious talent in the Championship, assisting more goals than any other player in the league (Sport.de), and bringing him in permanently will be a massive coup for the West Midlands side.
Is Matheus Pereira the best player in the Championship?
Yes
No

Only need Grady to get back up to speed and hopefully the 2 can work together again to blow defences apart

If we let him go we truly are stupid

The supporters clearly love the Brazilian and will feel a lot better when he’s their player on a permanent basis.
