Glasgow-born Sule, who signed for West Brom from the Scottish champions in 2023, excelled in PL2 last season, scoring nine goals in 11 games, but only managed one first-team appearance with the Baggies.
He has signed a new long-term contract with the EFL Championship club, who are keen for him to go out and get first-team games.
Motherwell boss Jens Berthel Askou has won the race to sign the talented teenager, ahead of likes of Lyon and Newcastle.
The news that will please Motherwell fans who are looking for new players comes as if emerged that Rangers had a cheeky bid for Lennon Miller booted out nearly 15 months ago.

It's common knowledge that Celtic's advances for the young midfielder were rebuffed by the Fir Park club, but the Rangers offer only came to light in recent days.

Miller is easily the most attractive young prospect in Scottish football right now, and won't be short of offers.
The 18-year-old won every Scottish Premiership Young Player of the Year award going, broke into the Scotland first-team set-up and made his debut, and excelled in a Motherwell side that struggled last season amid two manager walk-outs in Stuart Kettlewell and Michael Wimmer.

Rangers are believed to have verbally offered £1million for the Wishaw hot shot, which was instantly refused.
Clubs in England and around Europe are circling, knowing they're looking at £3million just to enter a conversation, and Miller has admitted himself that he fancies a move abroad, hopefully in the vein of the likes of Lewis Ferguson, Scott McTominay, Billy Gilmour and Max Johnston.
Dad Lee also says that would be an attractive proposition for the star, who is currently in pre-season with Motherwell and travelled to their base in Delden last week.
In the meantime, should Sule sign for Motherwell, fans might get their first glimpse of the player during their Premier Sports Cup Group G opener against Clyde at the Hamilton Community Stadium on Saturday.
Askou's side are then at home to League Two champions Peterhead on Tuesday, July 15.
