West Brom are keen to sign Manchester United defender and West Ham target Cameron Borthwick-Jackson on a season-long loan this summer, according to TMW.
Tony Pulis has been looking to sign another left-back in the transfer window due to the lack of options he has at the position.
Jonny Evans played there in their Premier League opening day victory away at Crystal Palace, but really a centre-back by trade, Pulis wants a proper fullback to play every week.
He doesn’t have faith in Sebastien Pocognoli and sold James Chester to Aston Villa earlier this week who also filled in at left-back leaving them with even fewer options.
Schalke rebuffed both West Ham & West Brom’s attempts to sign Bosnian defender Sead Kolasinac while Leeds are proving hard to deal with over the signing of Charlie Taylor, causing Pulis to look elsewhere.
A player he is eager to sign is Cameron Borthwick-Jackson from Manchester United. The 19-year-old has been told he has no future at the club this season but ti still wanted for the long-term with a loan move eyed up for the 2016/17 season.
West Ham have also been linked with a move for the left-back as cover for the injured Aaron Cresswell, but if the Baggies are ready to offer him a regular starting role that would give them a lot of leverage in any deal.
