West Ham loanee Grady Diangana should be grabbing attention of Manuel Pellegrini

There are a number of West Ham players impressing on loan away from the London Stadium this season and some could still have a big future further down the line.

Hammers boss Manuel Pellegrini will be well aware of the club’s assets and he should be keeping a particularly close eye on Grady Diangana.

The 21-year-old joined West Brom on a season-long loan in the summer and he’s been on fire in the Championship so far.

He’s played 10 games for the Baggies so far across all competitions, scoring four goals and supplying three assists in return to become an instant favourite at the Hawthorns.

Diangana is certainly benefiting from regular starts and he’s looking a class above in the Championship right now.

The skilful winger has thrived on the left flank at West Brom, where he’s shown he can torment full-backs by dribbling past them either way and his crossing appears to have improved too.

Diangana was looked at by Pellegrini last season and played 21 senior games across all competitions.

But the English wide man was rarely given a regular run of starts to settle in the top-flight and it was hard for him to pick up any momentum,

There is no question that he’s improving already at West Brom and he could be a real force if he has a full season under his belt tearing it up in the Championship.

West Ham have Felipe Anderson and Andriy Yarmolenko as their main options out wide at present, with the likes of Robert Snodgrass and Michail Antonio in return.

But Diangana can be looking to compete with them next season if he keeps progressing and he’s definitely a rising star that Pellegrini should keep in his thoughts.
