00:00West Bromwich Albion and manager Ryan Mason have a crucial off-field challenge to address

00:07if they are to achieve their goals in the Championship this season.

00:12At the heart of their concerns lies a series of player contracts set to expire in summer

00:172026 alongside with a squad already reshaped by a summer of departures and arrivals.

00:24Last summer saw the Baggies lose a dozen players including young talent Tom Fellows to Southampton

00:28whilst on board Hagen, Darnold Furlong and experienced figures such as Grady Dean Garner, John Swift and Semi Ajayi

00:36also exited at the end of their contracts.

00:41Nine new signings replaced them leaving the squad slightly shallower than before

00:46a situation that could worsen if current contracts are not secured.

00:51And many of Albion's key players stay may hinge on the club's league position

00:54but with forming consistent, retaining experienced heads appears vital.

01:00Josh Madger, the 26-year-old striker, is returning from a long-term injury sustained in January.

01:05While not yet at peak form, Madger remains one of West Brom's most natural finishers

01:10and allowing him to leave on a free transfer would be a major blow.

01:15Colin Grant, signed for £15m in 2020, has struggled to deliver.

01:19Daryl Dike's time at Albion has been ravaged by injuries, limiting him to 46 appearances in nearly four years

01:26with just one league goal since 2022-23.

01:30Unless a remarkable turnaround, this could be his final season at the Hawthorns.

01:36Other notable expirees include Jed Wallace, whose influence has diminished.

01:40Osmar Dinikite, whose future depends on performance and club option to extend.

01:46And reserve goalkeeper Joe Weld-Smith.

01:49Three lone players, Samuel Emeligan Jr., Toby Collier and Charlie Taylor,

01:53are also set to return to their parent clubs unless permanent deals are struck.

01:59With many decisions looming, Mason faces a critical window to stabilise his squad.

02:04Securing the right players could define West Brom's campaign,

02:07while delays risk leaving the club scrambling and undermining their championship ambitions.
