West Bromwich Albion have completed the signing of French right-back Nolan Galves on a four-year contract from Ligue 2 side Rodez AF. The 23-year-old joins for an undisclosed fee, becoming the club’s fifth senior summer signing following Jimmy-Jay Morgan, Conor Townsend, Matt Ingram and Barney Stewart.
Who is Nolan Galves?
Galves spent last season with Rodez, helping them reach the Ligue 2 play-offs where they lost on penalties to Saint-Etienne. The full-back made 36 appearances in all competitions, contributing eight assists. His contract at The Hawthorns will keep him with the Baggies until the summer of 2030.
Why this signing matters for West Bromwich Albion
The addition of Galves strengthens West Brom’s defensive options as they prepare for the new Championship season. His experience in France’s second tier and his attacking contributions make him a valuable asset. He joins a squad that has already seen significant reinforcements this summer.
What comes next for the Baggies?
With five new signings already secured, West Bromwich Albion are shaping up for a competitive campaign. The club will now focus on integrating Galves and the other new arrivals into the team ahead of the upcoming season.
