Tom Fellows could be on the move from West Brom this summer if they fail to get promoted, with one target potentially softening the blow of his absence.

As of now, West Brom will have their full focus on achieving promotion ahead of the final seven games of the season, albeit it will have to be via the playoffs.

An encounter with Sunderland is up next, and a failure to secure all three points could see the Baggies drop out of the top six, showcasing just how tight the race is for the final two playoff spots.

However, once their fate is sealed, attention will turn to the recruitment department, with Fellows' future uncertain.

Rangers departed could be a perfect replacement for Fellows

Everton were interested in signing Fellows during the winter transfer window, and it's likely that the interest will re-surface yet again in the summer, regardless of which division Albion are in.

West Brom will likely bag a pretty penny from his sale if it were to happen, but very little of it would have to be reinvested into his replacement, with Tom Lawrence potentially leaving Rangers at the end of the season.

Fellows has been integral to West Brom's season.

Tony Mowbray's side are believed to hold an interest in the ex-Derby man [Daily Mail], and given his quality and previous history in the division, he would be a shrewd option.

The sale of Fellows would then provide West Brom with some serious finance to go on and strengthen other areas of the team.

Mowbray will be paying no attention to transfer noise

Mowbray's one and only focus for the next month will be on what happens on the pitch, with everything else largely irrelevant.

West Brom need to find some form to cement their place in the playoffs, with momentum often the key to success.

A win against Sunderland would go a long way towards achieving that, and Fellows will have his part to play in that clash.
