West Bromwich Albion's midfield received a significant boost on Monday with the return of Semi Ajayi for pre-season training. Ajayi's arrival comes slightly later than his teammates due to his recent international commitments with the Nigerian national team, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.

The 29-year-old played a pivotal role in helping Nigeria qualify for the upcoming African Cup of Nations. In recognition of his efforts, manager Carlos Corberan granted Ajayi some well-deserved extended leave. The rest of the West Brom squad reported back for pre-season testing last week, kicking off their preparations for the upcoming season.

Ajayi's return adds a vital presence to the Baggies' midfield. He's a player known for his defensive solidity and tireless work ethic, qualities that will be crucial for West Brom's ambitions. While he'll likely undergo a tailored training program to ensure a smooth transition back into the pre-season routine, Ajayi is expected to regain peak fitness quickly. His swift integration with his teammates will be key as they build momentum for the new campaign.

With a full pre-season under his belt, Ajayi is expected to be a key figure in West Brom's push for promotion back to the Premier League.
