BAGGIES AGREE PHILLIPS FEE

West Brom have agreed a fee with Queens Park Rangers over the signing of winger Matty Phillips, according to the Sunday Mirror.

Phillips is expected to cost around £7million, but the paper report the Baggies have offered a 'lucrative deal' worth more than the initial valuation.
 
Latest timed report (from Metro) says it is a done deal!

(Edit: But this is entirely based on what was reported in the Sunday Mirror earlier this morning!)

West Brom have reportedly won the transfer race to sign QPR winger Matt Phillips.

Despite the Rangers being relegated the 24-year-old impressed a host of Premier League clubs last season, scoring three goals and creating eight assists during a difficult campaign.

Aston Villa, Leicester and Crystal Palace were interested in Phillips but the Mirror report that it is the Baggies who have landed the Scotland international in a deal worth more than the winger’s £7m valuation.

West Brom missed out on signing former Chelsea striker Demba Ba last month, unable to compete with Shanghai Shenhua’s lucrative offer of more than £100,000-a-week.

I would take it. Looked a good signing at the time but proved to be a massive disappointment.

I would too. If we can get a bidding battle going between Sunderland and the Germans, fine, otherwise take what's offered.

Never quite sure why Hoilett didn't work out for us. I suppose we should just be thankful for that misplaced pass that bounced off the Derby defender into OBZ's path... That was Junior's crowning moment. Says it all really
 
What did we end up paying for Hoilett? I seem to remember that we had to pay compensation because of age at the time.

According to Wiki, it was a 4 year contract for an unspecified fee decided by a tribunal. Wiki also says:

"In January 2012, Hoilett was named one of the 13 players to watch in 2012 by world football governing body FIFA."

<wah>

With what song are we going to welcome Richard Keogh to LR on 8.3.16?!
 
Shame we are selling this player, thinking he would be in his element, with us in the Championship.

Where are the rest of our new buys?
 
I'm not expecting too many more arrivals until we sell some of our better assets. Not sure if this is a good or bad thing tbh!

A round-up of the latest transfer speculation involving QPR, Chelsea and Brentford…

Midlands newspaper the Express & Star reports that West Brom have warned QPR they will not pay £10m for Matty Phillips and are ready to look elsewhere.

West London Sport revealed on Sunday that Rangers had rejected a bid from Albion for the 24-year-old winger.

The Express & Star later reported that Albion were moving closer to a dealand believed a compromise could be reached over a fee.

But now it is being reported that Rangers have dug their heels in and that Baggies boss Tony Pulis has told them he will end his interest in Phillips if they refuse to budge.

Fans on Twitter react to Rangers rejecting bid for Phillips
