Report – Europa League side plot summer raid for rarely seen West Brom player
Rangers, West Ham, and Brighton are all interested in signing West Brom striker Rayhaan Tulloch this summer, according to The Scottish Sun.
The teenager is out of contract at The Hawthorns at the end of the season, and has yet to agree terms on an extension with his boyhood club.
And it is understood that his uncertain situation has alerted a number of clubs to his potential availability.
The Scottish outlet suggest that the Baggies are still eager to hold on to the 19-year-old, and are willing to offer him more first team minutes in an effort to convince him to stay in the midlands.
But if an agreement cannot be reached, it is understood that Europa League side Rangers, as well as Premier League outfits West Ham and Brighton are willing to do battle for the promising hitman.
Tulloch may be rarely utilised by Slaven Bilic, but has showed plenty of potential so far this season, hitting nine goals in 14 outings in the Premier League 2.
His performances have been enough for the manager to involve him in the first team setup on occasion, however, and he has three FA Cup outings to his name this term too.
Keeping hold of the local starlet is obviously the most preferable outcome for the Baggies.
Tulloch has been on fire for the reserves this season, and he has registered 0.76 shots on target per game more than senior striker Hal Robson-Kanu in 2019/20, as per Wyscout, as well as having a higher xG rating, and completing an average of 10.37 more passes than the Welshman.
He looks ready for a greater role in the first team picture, and the only hope now is that he can be convinced to stay with his boyhood club.
Football Insider report that the Baggies are increasingly confident of being able to tie him down, but ultimately, only time will tell.
