West Brom have expressed interest in Roma striker Seydou Doumbia.

Baggies boss Tony Pulis has snapped up Rickie Lambert from Liverpool in the past week.

However, the manager has admitted his squad is still well short of numbers and quality.

Italian transfer expert Alfredo Pedulla reports West Brom sounded out Roma yesterday about Doumbia's situation.

The Ivorian is available from the Giallorossi with Manchester City striker Edin Dzeko due to arrive in the next 24 hours.
