West Brom 'in talks with Bournemouth over £10m deal for Josh King' as Slaven Bilic attempts to strengthen attack with Norwegian striker

West Brom have identified Bournemouth striker Josh King as a transfer target and have opened talks with the Championship side.

Slaven Bilic is desperate to strengthen his attacking resources, particularly with Hal Robson-Kanu out for a long period having undergone surgery on a broken arm.

The Baggies were keen on Huddersfield's £16million-rated Karlan Grant but negotiations have broken down and King, 28, has emerged as an option, according to the Sun.

The newly-promoted side have until October 16 to complete the deal as that is when the domestic transfer window closes.
