The England Under 20 international midfielder has signed for the Baggies in a £1.5million deal and has penned a three-and-ahalf-year contract at The Hawthorns.

"As a young lad, Richard's got a terrific work rate and a bit of pace about him," Baggies boss Bryan Robson told the clubs official website on sealing the signing..

"He has the confidence to take the ball in any area of the pitch and can create and score goals.

"The one thing he can improve on is the defensive side of his game but he can learn that.

"He's got good a character and is an all-round midfield player."
