Former Celtic prospect Eseosa Sule is set to return to Scotland after initially leaving Glasgow to join West Brom two years ago. Following a decade a part of the Hoops’ setup, the forward took on a new challenge as he signed up to the the scholarship programme at the Hawthorns in January 2023.
Sule, now 19, is taking on a crucial chapter in his career as he closes in on a loan move to Motherwell. According to a report from Record Sport, the Scottish Premiership side are ‘set to snap him up’ on a temporary deal until the end of the upcoming 2025/26 season.
Sule enjoyed a strong campaign in the Premier League 2 for West Brom U21s last time out, contributing seven goals and two assists in 18 appearances. He has signed a new long-term deal with Albion but will see out this next season back in Scotland to earn some valuable senior minutes.
The 19-year-old had been wanted by the likes of Lyon and Newcastle United prior to signing a new contract at the Hawthorns. Amid the interest, new Motherwell manager Jens Berthel Askou beat off the competition to land Sule on a loan deal.

Ex-Rangers loan ace completes move to Mexico
Aaron Ramsey, who enjoyed a short loan spell with Rangers in 2022, has made the next move in his career by joining Liga MX side Pumas UNAM. The move comes following his full circle transfer to Cardiff City, where his senior career started off back in 2006.
Ramsey made the move back to his native Wales and boyhood club in 2023, signing for the Bluebirds on a two-year deal. He was put in charge of the first team in April after former manager Omer Riza was relieved of his duties.
However, after he wasn’t offered the full-time coaching job with Cardiff, Ramsey opted to move elsewhere in order to continue playing. This move to Mexico will be the seventh club the 34-year-old has represented during his playing career.
