West Brom manager Ryan Mason believes Toby Collyer will “grow as a player” during his loan.<\/p>\n
Manchester United<\/a> agreed to send Collyer to The Hawthorns last week. The midfielder received interest from over a dozen clubs in the Championship, but West Brom won the race for his signature.<\/p>\n Former Tottenham midfielder Mason is hopeful of leading West Brom back to the topflight.<\/p>\n Collyer is expected to play a key role for West Brom this season, and Mason spoke glowingly about the 21-year-old’s potential following his debut cameo against Wrexham last weekend.<\/p>\n “Toby’s a young player, but we know we’re going to need him and he’s going to help us,” Mason told reporters. “I’ve wanted Toby for a few weeks now. He’s someone that I really believe in, which is important and I have that belief in all of my players.<\/p>\n “But when you go on loan to somewhere, I think you need to feel like you’re wanted from the club and the manager and he certainly is that.<\/p>\n “Hopefully we can help him because if we help him improve and grow as a player, then it’s certainly going to be beneficial to us.<\/p>\n “I think there’s loads of room and loads of growth to develop. That’s certainly going to happen on the training pitch. The reality is the game is the best teacher.<\/p>\n “The more game exposure you can get, the better, especially at a young age. I’m sure and I expect that Toby knows that I believe in him, which for me is super important.<\/p>\n “I’m going to put a lot of energy, the same amount of energy that I’ve put into him as every other one of my players, to help them grow and improve.”<\/p>\n Mason added: “He’s a good kid, humble, wants to work, wants to be part of it. You can feel that as soon as you speak to him.<\/p>\n “He wants to play football, loves football and that’s super important. We want those types of people in the building who want to work and be part of something.<\/p>\n “On Saturday, he replaced Isaac [Price] and had a bit of a higher role, but there’ll be times where he’ll be a bit lower and we’ll be expecting and demanding different things from him.<\/p>\n “Most importantly, he’s going to work hard. He’s part of a group. He’s part of a team and a football club that want to help him.”<\/p>\n Collyer made 13 first-team appearances in a breakthrough 2024\/2025 at Old Trafford<\/a>.<\/p>\n Sky Sports discounted Premier League and EFL package<\/p>\n This article contains affiliate links, we will receive a commission on any sales we generate from it.
