West Brom boss Sam Allardyce is ready to throw in Okay Yokuslu against Tottenham on Sunday.

Yokuslu is set to feature in an Albion squad for the first time tomorrow.

The midfielder also joined on loan on deadline day – arriving from Spanish side Celta Vigo.

But a delay with his Visa meant he landed in England late on Thursday, meaning he is likely to be on the bench tomorrow.

“He arrived at the training ground yesterday," Allardyce said.

“There was a bit of a delay because of his Visa.

“But we finally got it sorted – I think he had to go to Barcelona for it.

“He will be assessed to see whether he can take part against Tottenham.

“I'll look at him in training and have a chat with him to see how he feels about being involved in the squad because the new players will be very important for us going forward."
