Jacob Murphy has struggled to break into Newcastle's starting XI this season

West Bromwich Albion have completed a trio of loan signings with Jefferson Montero, Jacob Murphy and Stefan Johansen moving to The Hawthorns.

All three players have joined the Championship promotion hopefuls until the end of the season.

Montero, 29, has moved from Swansea, Murphy, 23, from Newcastle and Johansen, 28, from Fulham.

"All three will give the team different dimensions," head coach Darren Moore said.

"All three have excellent experience and a real know-how of the division. They are good players with individual skill sets which will benefit the team.

"All are wonderful characters which everyone knows is so important to us."

Ecuador winger Montero has not started a game for Swansea this season but has made 13 substitute appearances.

Murphy, another winger, has been mainly used as a substitute for Newcastle this campaign following a £12m move from Norwich in July 2017.

Norwegian Johansen has made just four starts for Fulham in 2018-19 after helping the club to promotion to the Premier League last season.
