West Brom have £5m bid accepted for Isaiah Jones transfer
West Brom have had a £5million bid accepted for Middlesbrough winger Isaiah Jones, according to Lyall Thomas.
The Sky Sports reporter shared (8 January) that the Baggies and Luton Town have both had offers accepted by Boro.
Both clubs have now been permitted to speak to the 25-year-old, who has made 21 appearances in the Championship this season.
However, the Hatters are considered to be favourites to land the Guyana international, according to one source mentioned.
West Brom preparing for Fellows departure?
The fact that Albion have made a bid for a right winger will immediately raise concerns among supporters about the future of Tom Fellows.

However, Albion insider DOOD reported on 6 January that a substantial offer could tempt the Black Country club to sell their star talent.
The Middlesbrough man would not be the most inspiring signing as he has not scored or assisted in 21 matches in the second tier this campaign.
However, he did notch 12 contributions (eight goals, four assists) in 35 league games last season, so the Baggies would hope that he can find that kind of form if he makes the move.
It remains to be seen if Fellows leaves and they may add Jones as another option, giving them more depth in their playoff push.
