Semi Ajayi makes comeback in West Brom’s Victory over Newcastle United

Semi Ajayi marked his return to action for West Bromwich Albion in their Premier League 2 triumph over Newcastle United on Monday night.

The Nigerian international featured throughout the first half as he worked on regaining full fitness.

Ajayi had been sidelined for about four months due to a hamstring injury sustained during the first half of the Baggies’ Sky Bet Championship clash against Cardiff City last October.

The center-back is expected to be fully match-ready in the next two weeks, offering a boost to Nigeria’s head coach, Eric Chelle, ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers in March.

Ajayi’s return to fitness puts him in contention for selection in the Super Eagles squad for their matches against Rwanda and Zimbabwe.
