Alex Mowatt and coWest Bromwich Albion will aim to continue their rise up the Championship table in a bid to secure promotion back to the top-flight.

The Baggies have been consistently excellent upon the arrival of Carlos Corberan to B71 back in October 2022, with the Spaniard taking the Black Country outfit from the foot of the second tier table to the brink of the top six during his first term in charge.

Albion continue to fight towards the top end of the division this campaign despite limited financial resources and look increasingly likely to give themselves a shot at returning to the Premier League at the third time of asking.

Over the course of two transfer windows this season, the Baggies have failed to spend a penny on transfer fees, ultimately lowering the quality of the squad, which could normally be risen with significant investment.

However, West Brom continue to punch above their weight in the second tier, competing against sides who have far superior financial pulling power.

Here at Football League World, we reveal where West Brom rank in the Championship for team value, with all figures according to Transfermarkt.

Out of the 24 sides competing in the second tier this term, West Brom are in 12th place for team value, with the squad totalling €53.6 million overall.

The Black Country outfit possesses a 28-man squad, with an average age in the first team coming in at 27.6 years old.

With 15 of the 28 players coming from overseas, Albion’s average value of each player in the squad is €1.91 million.

Given the lack of investment shown season upon season by previous controlling shareholder Guochuan Lai, it is hardly a surprise to see the Baggies’ team value dwindle as much as it has, with parachute payments disappearing after a three-year absence from the Premier League.
