West Brom boss Clarke hoping to retain West Ham target Olsson

New West Bromwich Albion manager Steve Clarke insists he wants to keep Jonas Olsson at the club.

The Sweden international centre-back has emerged as a strong target for Premier League new boys West Ham United but Clarke has made it clear that he is no hurry to sell the 28-year old.

"Ideally for me I want to keep all the contracted players and I'd like to bring in another two or three players that can help me," he said.

"Jonas is a key player for the team and the club, and I will do what I can to keep him here."
