Swansea, Brighton chasing West Brom whiz Tyler Roberts

West Brom face a battle to keep hold of whizkid Tyler Roberts.

The Mirror says Swansea, Brighton and Sunderland are all keen on Wales teen sensation Tyler Roberts.

The highly-rated forward, 18, has scored three times for Walsall, on loan from West Brom.

Saddlers boss Jon Whitney said: "I would like to sign him on a three year contract but I don't think that is going to happen!

"I think he has stepped up. I watched him on loan at Oxford when he was 17 but he has really kicked on from then. The ability has always been there. What we have worked on is how he plays in the lone striker role. We will do whatever we can to keep him."
