‘Omg yes please I beg’ – These West Brom fans excited by latest transfer rumour

A section of West Brom supporters are excited by the recent transfer links to Bournemouth striker Josh King.

According to the Daily Mail, manager Sam Allardyce has set his sights on the Championship forward as the club seek a replacement for Karlan Grant.

The latter is set for a spell on the sidelines after suffering a broken foot that could keep him out of action for around six weeks.

King has been heavily linked with a move away from Bournemouth this month after failing to agree a deal to leave the club in the summer.

West Ham are long-term admirers of King and are expected to rival the Baggies in any potential deal to sign King.

The Hammers are said to have had a £13million bid rejected for the player last summer.

The former Manchester United youngster is out of contract in the summer, so the January window represents the final opportunity for Bournemouth to get any kind of fee for the player.

Despite being a man in-demand, King is yet to score for Bournemouth this season in eight Championship appearances.

These West Brom supporters have been reading the news on social media and giving their thoughts on a potential deal.

Here are some of the best reactions from Twitter.
