# West Brom: Grady Diangana ‘to miss remainder of season’

**[West Bromwich Albion](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/west-brom-news/) forward Grady Diangana is set to be ruled out for the ‘remainder’ of the [Championship](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/championship-news/) season, according to journalist [Lewis Cox](https://twitter.com/LewisCox_star).**

### The Lowdown: Injury concerns

The Baggies winger was forced off the pitch with a serious [foot injury](https://www.expressandstar.com/sport/football/west-bromwich-albion/2023/03/06/west-broms-grady-diangana-set-to-miss-rest-of-season-if-surgery-confirmed/) during the 2-0 victory over Middlesbrough at the Hawthorns on February 25, which saw him [miss](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/grady-diangana/leistungsdaten/spieler/342048) the following defeat to Hull.

Carlos Corberan had [confirmed](https://www.expressandstar.com/sport/football/west-bromwich-albion/2023/03/06/west-broms-grady-diangana-set-to-miss-rest-of-season-if-surgery-confirmed/) that the Midlands outfit were awaiting news from a specialist to discover the exact extent of the damage, but it sounds like supporters shouldn’t be hoping to see him again anytime soon.

### The Latest: Diangana update

Taking to [Twitter](https://twitter.com/lewiscox_star/status/1632784432569495553?s=46&t=cVYwodEwJ5KqH22eIl4UYA), Cox revealed that Diangana is expected to be ruled out for the rest of the 2022/23 campaign. He wrote:

*“Looks like bad news on Grady Diangana. Set to miss remainder of season due to surgery on ligament damage in foot. #wba waiting for second opinion but surgery likely.”*

### The Verdict: Blow for Corberan

Diangana has been a regular feature for Corberan since being appointed at West Brom, starring in [19](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/grady-diangana/leistungsdatentrainer/spieler/342048/plus/0/trainer_id/16410) of his [21](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/carlos-corberan/leistungsdatenDetail/trainer/16410/plus/0?saison_id=&verein_id=984&liga=&wettbewerb_id=&trainer_id=) games in charge, so it’ll be a massive blow to lose one of his most trusted players.

The Congo-born talent has netted four goals and provided three assists in the second tier this season, where he was averaging 1.3 shots and the same number of key passes prior to his absence ([WhoScored](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/306943/Show/Grady-Diangana)).

The 24-year-old is also strong in the defensive aspect of his game, ranking in the [99th](https://fbref.com/en/players/f522d7ec/Grady-Diangana) percentile for most blocks made per 90 minutes by players in his position.

Diangana is a valuable player to have in the building having operated in [four](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/grady-diangana/leistungsdaten/spieler/342048) different positions this term, so it’s vital that he begins his road to recovery to get back on the pitch as soon as possible.
