West Bromwich Albion manager Tony Mowbray has revealed that he is keen to extend Jay Simpson's loan deal from Arsenal beyond the end of this season and into the next campaign.
The versatile forward, who can also play on the right-wing, has impressed joining the Baggies in January, scoring twice in 12 appearances.
It is uncertain whether the Gunners will allow the 20-year-old to remain with WBA next season, although it seems that the Baggies will do all they can to convince Arsene Wenger to allow it.
"It’s something we’ve tipped-toed into with Arsenal," Mowbray told The Birmingham Mail.
"At this moment we’ll keep those conversations in-house. But it is something we’ve explored with Arsenal and we’ll see what’s decided in the longer term.
"He [Simpson] came on the scene and played with an innocence to his game. He gave everyone a lift and a spark, and looked very, very bright.
"He picked up an injury at Burnley mainly because of the game time he was getting. He’d never been asked to play Premier League football for ten or so games on the bounce.
"Unsurprisingly he picked up an injury and he hasn’t quite hit the levels he had since coming back from the injury.
"[His talent] is undoubtedly there and it is up to us rediscover that and give him the opportunity to rediscover that."
