Brann midfielder Felix Horn Myhre is linked with a move to West Bromwich Albion as a potential upgrade on Alex Mowatt. The 27-year-old Norwegian has impressed in Eliteserien, and the English Championship club is now preparing an official offer. League standing: 8th in Eliteserien, 19 pts, 6W-1D-8L from 15 games, recent form LWWLL.
What does this mean for Brann?
Myhre has been a key player for Brann, with six goals and four assists in his last 38 league appearances. His defensive contributions, averaging 4.8 and 4.4 duels won per game over the past two seasons, highlight his versatility. Brann, currently 8th in Eliteserien with 19 points, could lose a vital player mid-season.
Why is West Brom targeting Myhre?
West Brom view Myhre as an improvement over Mowatt, who managed only five goal contributions in 39 games last season. Myhre’s stats and experience in Norway’s top flight make him an attractive option. The Hawthorns outfit is willing to pay around £2.5m to £3m to secure his services.
What happens next?
Brann, who have scored 30 goals and conceded 25 this season, prepare for their home clash against Lillestrøm on September 5. With Jonas Torsvik and Sakarias Opsahl sidelined through injury, selling Myhre could significantly impact their midfield depth.
