I never believe any report linked to Turkish journalists until it happens  Seriously though there is a YouTube video out there from back on 29th November last year titled: Mbaye Diagne 2020/2021 Welcome To West Bromwich Albion Skills & Goals.
I have viewed a couple of the videos of him and the jury is out, there is a report he has 9 from 7 this season, I am sure Joss could tell us. Two things that concern me a little looking at the videos are, the quality of the defence in the goals he scored. Teams would be slaughtered in the Championship if they were to defend like some on those videos. Also the amount of sitters he misses in the videos with the time he has, never mind time to pick the shot, he often has time to read a book beforehand.

Krovinavic loan terminated he’s off to Forest for rest of season
That gives us a few more pennies to put towards any transfers. We have taken Austin, Bond, Zohore Harper and Krovinavic off our wage bill and bought in Snodgrass and Lonagan. So we’re in credit.

Diagne has 11 goals in 19 matches in all competitions so far this season. 9 in 15 in the league, 2 in 3 in the Europa league and 0 in 1 in the Turkish Cup.

I think they change the title of those videos based on who the player is linked with at the time, makes them look in the know if it happens - but it's probably had half a dozen titles since upload.
But yea I looked at that one and agree that the guy couldn't finish his dinner...
That said, he scores a lot of goals despite the amount he misses, so does have that knack of being in the right place at the right time. Also looks like a proper number 9, so something different to what we have. But agree the jury is out on how well he will do playing for a poorer team in a tougher league. Definitely a gamble, but I guess the choices are limited in January with little cash. Just have to hope that it's a good match if he does come.

Takes a good penalty. Weak left foot, though.

Considering we retained both Livermore and Sawyers, I’m really disappointed we have parted company with Krovinovic. I feel he offers more than both of them, even if he doesn’t ideally fit into their positions. To be honest, based upon their recent performances, Mr Blobby could do a better job

It DID seem that Krov was just chased and secured by SB in order to please Pereira, didn't it?
Only a bit-part player in the Championship, FFS! I like him, but don't think we'll miss him one jot. Hope Pereira doesn't resort to chucking his toys about though...

Good reminder 13. So about time we started getting some freebies, cheapies and loans in. I still think there will be 4 or more to come. CB, DM & Fwd, plus probably need another fwd or a utility defender, I know that makes 5, but will we get them all. Probably not. Come on big Sam and LD time is ticking away.

Krovinovic was more than a bit-part player last season. He played 40 times in the league, 24 of those were starts and it was only in 6 matches where he didn't make it on the pitch.
I do think resigning him was a good decision in the summer because he added depth to the midfield but Slaven should have pritorited a defensive midfield player ahead of him. Under Allardyce there is only really room for 1 luxury player in the 11 and that will always be Pereira so I'm not really surprised that the loan has been ended.
