West Brom boss Irvine wants another striker signing

West Bromwich Albion boss Alan Irvine remains in the market for another striker signing.

Irvine is targeting another striker for the Premier League season despite smashing the Baggies' transfer record for Brown Ideye.

He told the Express & Star: "We've got Brown in now so that gives us three recognised strikers at the right level, and it would be lovely to have another one, but of course strikers cost a lot of money.

"We have a budget to work to and rightly so, and it's a case of trying to stretch that as well as we possibly can.

"I would love us to be able to get in another striker because you want to have options of how you can play up front, but having said that I've been absolutely delighted with Victor and Saido.

"I think they've been terrific since I came in, day in and day out in training."
