West Brom striker has £16.5m relegation release clause

 

West Brom face the prospect of losing Salomon Rondon for just £16.5m if they are relegated to the Championship, claims The Daily Telegraph.

 

The Baggies are bottom of the Premier League and 10 points adrift of safety with 15 points left to play for in order to salvage their season.

 

West Brom are as good as relegated and are now bracing themselves for a mass exodus in the summer.

 

Star defender Jonny Evans will be free to leave for as little as £4m if they drop down to the Championship and now it has emerged Rondon also has a relegation release clause.

Darren Moore’s side rejected an advance from Tianjin Quanjin in January even though the Chinese Super League side were willing to offer in excess of £30m.

 

Now West Brom face the prospect of losing the 28-year-old for half that fee as their relegation looks a foregone conclusion.

 

Of players that have scored at least five Premier League goals this season, only Richarlison (5.8%) and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting (8.3%) have a worse conversion rate than Rondon (8.6%).
