West Bromwich Albion fans have got one hell of a player on their hands in the form of Semi Ajayi. The versatile defender joined the club at the start of the season on an undisclosed fee from Rotherham (BBC), and no one is doubting the decision to bring him in now after a barnstorming season so far.

The supporters adore their man, and after another incredible display in the 0-0 draw away at Swansea over the weekend the official West Bromwich Albion Twitter account put out an appreciation tweet for the 26-year-old, and the fans loved seeing it.
Ajayi already looks like a talent who belongs in the Premier League. He’s a multi-talented star, and as well as being a rock at the back who averages 1 tackle, 0.9 interceptions and 3.4 clearances per game, he’s also pitched in at the other end with five Championship goals in 35 games (WhoScored).

1.5 million
He’s been the best centre back in the @EFL for @WBA this season by a mile #wba

Less than £2million & he’s been an absolute colussus, he goes under the radar sometimes but one of the best signings we made in my opinion

I can’t remember Semi being outpaced by any striker one on one this season. One of my favourite players this season

The supporters clearly adore Ajayi and will be keen to see him with them in the Premier League next season should they go up.
