West Bromwich Albion can confirm their men’s released and retained lists following the conclusion of the 2025/26 campaign.
Released players & end of loan
Long-serving duo Jed Wallace and Daryl Dike, alongside goalkeeper Joe Wildsmith, will all leave The Hawthorns this summer.
Wallace, who joined in the summer of 2022, made 150 appearances across his four-year stay - netting 16 goals and claiming 16 assists.
Alongside his contributions on the pitch, Jed was exemplary in his conduct as captain - picking up the PFA Player in the Community Award in 2024 for his contribution to various campaigns for the club and The Albion Foundation.
Forward Dike arrived in January 2022 and struck 11 goals from 68 appearances across all competitions.
Daryl remained a popular figure around the club and with its supporters owing to his positive attitude in the face of adversity - finishing last season by memorably scoring against Preston North End and Watford.
Wildsmith - who spent the second half of the 2025/26 season on loan at Middlesbrough - departs after making 20 appearances for Albion.
Meanwhile, young players Dan Chimeziri, Muhamed Diomande, Evan Humphries, Miller McDonald, Kevin Mfuamba, Deago Nelson, Torin Ntege, Donte German-Ranger, Adam Okorodudu and Liam Wilkes are also set to leave the Baggies.
And the loan deals for Charlie Taylor, Danny Imray, Jamaldeen Jimoh-Aloba and Hindolo Mustapha will conclude at the end of May.
The club would like to place on record its sincerest thanks to all departing players for their efforts during their time with the Albion, and wishes them every success in their future careers.

Albion remain in dialogue with Karlan Grant regarding a new deal, while offers have been made to Max O’Leary and Josh Maja. The contracts of all three players are set to expire this summer.
