The 21-year-old Dubliner made the right-back position his own under Baggies boss Slaven Bilic, after loan spells at Exeter City and Hereford United. O'Shea, who played his schoolboy football with St Kevin's Boys and was also a skilled Gaelic footballer and hurler with St Jude's - signed a new three-year contract at West Brom last January. He scored his first league goal for the club in last February's 2–0 win over Millwall and notched his second in a crucial win over Derby County earlier this month.
