A number of clubs in the Championship have expressed an interest in signing him, including Hull City and Sheffield Wednesday.
However, The Athletic has claimed that West Brom are in pole position to seal a loan move.
Collyer is now in advanced talks to join the Baggies, with the structure of a deal agreed.
West Brom officials believe that he can aid their push for promotion under new boss Ryan Mason.

Ahead of the Championship campaign, he said: “I’m very excited for the season, obviously, I know a lot about the Championship, having played in it when I was younger.
“It’s something I have always followed, it’s an amazing league and the support throughout is incredible.
“For me, it was about finding the right time and finding the right club.

“Obviously, I had been an assistant coach for Tottenham Hotspur for the past four years, and interim manager there as well.
“It was just about trying to find and feel a Club that felt right for me, and West Brom really does.”
Meanwhile, Collyer said recently that he wants to play “as many minutes as possible” and eventually become a first team starter for Man Utd.
Last month, he explained: “I think first and foremost I want to be here and play as many games for Man Utd as possible.
“I’ll sit down with the manager and higher-ups and see what’s the best solution for that.
“The best way for me to develop, whether it’s stay here or go on loan.
“The end goal for me is to play as many minutes as possible here, hopefully starting every week. So yeah, I’ll sit down with them.”
