'The rumours are true, they are two that are on our list': Slaven Bilic confirms interest in strikers Karlan Grant and Islam Slimani as West Brom boss looks to bolster attacking options ahead of transfer window shutting

West Brom boss Slaven Bilic confirmed Huddersfield's Karlan Grant and Leicester's Islam Slimani are on the club's radar as the Baggies look to boost their attack.

Forward Grant, who has not been included in Huddersfield's matchday squads so far this term, scored 19 Championship goals for the club last season, while Foxes striker Slimani netted nine times while on loan at Monaco.

Both players have been linked with West Brom, and when the names were put to Bilic ahead of Sunday's Premier League trip to Southampton, he said: 'I'm respectful to the clubs and I'm respectful to my players here.
