West Brom move puts smile on Mikey Johnston's face

Johnston said his game improved "massively" last season under West Brom manager Carlos Corberán, especially tactically, defensively and in terms of decision-making.

Mikey Johnston drove down the M6 to Birmingham with a smile on his face after sealing a deadline day move to West Brom. The Ireland international spent the second half of last season on loan at the English Championship side from Celtic, scoring seven times in 18 league games.

“I would say being at Albion helped reignite my career," Johnston told the West Brom club website.
