Toby Collyer nearing permanent move to West Bromwich

Overview

Manchester United midfielder Toby Collyer is nearing a permanent move to West Bromwich Albion. Manchester United has reportedly informed the 22-year-old academy graduate that he is free to leave to seek regular first-team football, a move that would represent “pure profit” for the club under financial regulations.

West Bromwich Albion, where Collyer previously spent the first half of the 2025/26 campaign on loan, has been in discussions to secure a permanent deal. Although Hull City attempted to “hijack the move” to offer Collyer Premier League football following their recent promotion, the midfielder is expected to favor a return to West Bromwich Albion to ensure consistent playing time.

Collyer’s recent progress has been hindered by physical setbacks, including a calf injury during his time at West Brom and hamstring issues during a loan spell at Hull City, where he was limited to five appearances. Manchester United appears prepared to sanction a permanent sale rather than another loan to allow the player to establish himself at the senior level amidst increased competition in their midfield.

As the summer transfer window approaches its deadline, the deal for Collyer is being finalized. The transfer is valued at an initial £3 million, with potential add-ons that could increase the total value to £7.6 million. Additionally, Manchester United has secured a 40 per cent sell-on clause for the player.
