Oliver Burke has hinted his future may lie away from West Brom after admitting he does not feel as if he is part of the team.
The 22-year-old Scot moved to the Midlands in 2017 for a reported fee of £15m but has only made 20 appearances for the Baggies since his arrival.
This year, he was on loan at Celtic before joining Spanish side Alaves where he is yet to score.
Burke has two years left on the five-year deal he signed to join West Brom in August 2017 but in an interview with the Express & Star, he suggested his future does not lie at the side currently leading the way in the Sky Bet Championship.
He said: “I’ve been there [at West Brom] so long, but then I’ve not actually played many games for them, so you almost feel like you are not part of that team because I’ve been to other clubs and been on loan.
“I just have to focus on this loan I’m on now and take it all in and hopefully good things come from me going on loan now and getting game time.
“Hopefully it puts me in the shop window.
“I’d love to be a club and be the first name on the team-sheet every week, but I think it will come in time.
“I’m still at a good age and I’m just doing everything I can to learn the game.
“I’m happy with where I am now and getting the game time. It’s such a great league as well, so I’m very happy.
“I wouldn’t say it’s far different from leagues in other countries I’ve played in.”
“I think maybe some tactical things, and the language barrier, but I feel like I’m learning a lot and they’ve made me feel very welcome.”
