Wales youth international Ollie is developing into an exciting talent for the Baggies. 

The club showed their commitment to progressing Bostock's career by offering him his professional contract in March 2024 - with the then 17-year-old only signing his scholarship in the summer of 2023, thus showing Albion's high hopes for the attacker's future development at the club. 

He ended the 23/24 campaign by picking up the Academy Player of the Year award. 

Ollie was born in Kingston, London, prior to relocating to Lichfield with his family at an early stage of his life - which is where he caught the eyes of Albion's youth staff. 

Bostock joined the academy setup in B71 as a six-year-old and has risen through the ranks since in pursuit of his professional goal.

An attacker, who can play across all of the attacking positions centrally or out wide, Bostock captained Wales' U17s during his time with the age group and even led them out at the 2024 European Championship. 

As he has proven at the club and international level, Ollie is creative player who makes things happen in the final third. He played plenty of minutes in Leigh Downing's U18s while still an U16 during the 2022/23 season, and those promising performances earned him a scholarship at The Hawthorns in June 2023. 

Bostock featured in the U21s during the 23/24 campaign and impressed, settling into a higher age group at just 16-years-old. Due to the academy's recent shift in focus giving youngsters more chances at higher age groups, he will hope those opportunities continue as he looks to become the next talent to push into the senior fold.
