The Baggies, currently without a head coach as the hunt for Carlos Corberan's successor goes on, find themselves light on defensive bodies.
Paddy McNair's half-season loan from new United States franchise San Jose ends today and the experienced Northern Ireland international jets off to pastures new tomorrow.
Albion have also been without the injured Semi Ajayi, who was a mainstay to start the Championship season, since October and the Nigeria international is not forecast for a return to contention until March.
