ALBION have confirmed the squad they are today submitting to the Barclays Premier League under the rules which were introduced two seasons ago.Clubs are allowed to name up to 25 'over-21' players, of which the Baggies have 24.
At least eight of these must fit the league's criteria for 'home-grown' players - but Albion have 11 in this category.
Players not included in the final 24-man list are the likes of Romelu Lukaku, Scott Allan, Saido Berahino, James Hurst, Sam Mantom, Kemar Roofe, Romaine Sawyers, George Thorne and Chris Wood, who remain eligible for Premier League duty as they were under the age of 21 on January 1.
