Two-year deal with Premiership club<\/h3>\n
WEST Bromwich Albion’s British Asian youngster Adil Nabi has signed his first professional contract with the club.<\/strong><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

17-year-old Nabi is a product of West Brom’s academy, and has signed a two-year deal to keep him at the club until June 2013.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

West Brom sporting & technical director Dan Ashworth said: “I’m delighted Adil has signed his first pro contract.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

“It highlights the hard work he and his family have put in and is another step on the ladder to him hopefully getting in and around the first team.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

“I remember Adil playing for our reserves as a 14-year-old in a pre-season match at Hereford. We’re really pleased with the progress he has made and hope it will continue over the next few years.”<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Nabi joined the club as an eight-year-old and has scored goals at every level. This term he has scored eight in 13 FA Premier Academy League games. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

He came off the bench to score the winner in West Brom’s 2-1 reserve win over Everton in October, and has started three of the last four reserve team games.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Nabi captained Albion to the Nike Premier Cup in April 2009 before being selected for England Under-16s six months later.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

He made two appearances against Wales and Northern Ireland in the successful 2009\/10 Victory Shield campaign.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

The first of his seven appearances at Under-17 level saw him score twice in a minute to help England to a 5-0 victory over Finland en route to winning the Nordic Tournament in the summer.<\/div>\n
