# West Brom: Joe Chapman hails Jayson Molumby’s impact

**Journalist Joe Chapman has hailed the impact of [West Brom](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/west-brom-transfer-rumours/) midfielder Jayson Molumby, also talking up his on-pitch relationship with Okay Yokuslu.**

### The Lowdown: Molumby shining for Baggies

The 23-year-old joined the Baggies from Brighton on a permanent move last year, having initially enjoyed a spell on loan at the Hawthorns.

Molumby is becoming an increasingly influential player for West Brom this season, [starting 16 times](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/344324/Show/Jayson-Molumby) in the [Championship](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/championship-news/) and flourishing under Carlos Corberan.

The Irishman bagged an assist and was named his side’s best player by [*WhoScored*](https://www.whoscored.com/Matches/1648491/Live/England-Championship-2022-2023-West-Bromwich-Reading) in the 1-0 win over Reading on Monday, as their promotion push further gathers steam.

### The Latest: Chapman hails midfielder’s impact

Taking to [Twitter](https://twitter.com/ChapmanJ92/status/1610212856363900929?s=20&t=S1xbAFYu4VKxFPf4L3L6-g), Chapman lauded the impact of Molumby, saying he and Yokuslu complement each other well:

> “The talking points from yesterday. This festive period in particular has outlined what a good piece of business Molumby is proving to be. Still only 23 and complements Yokuslu so well.”

### The Verdict: Brilliant signing

With each passing game, the better Molumby seems to get in a West Brom shirt, and he is going to play a pivotal role in the Baggies’ attempts to return to the Premier League.

Chapman is spot on regarding the midfield pairing of the youngster and Yokuslu thriving together, with the pair a dominant duo playing a big role in the resurgence under Corberan.

At 23, Molumby is still a maturing player, too, so the hope is that he continues to grow into an even more complete and fearsome midfielder in the years to come.
