West Brom boss Pulis admits Spurs target Berahino could leave

West Brom manager Tony Pulis cannot rule out Saido Berahino leaving in the coming days.

The 22-year-old has been the subject of two bids from Tottenham but both of the north Londoners' offers for the England Under-21 international have been rejected.

"I don't know. We'll have to wait and see," he said on Friday afternoon. "I wasn't in the discussions that the chairman had with Saido yesterday. I've not seen Saido since. We're training this afternoon and I'll have a chat with the lad when he comes in.

"I'd never say never to anything until it's closed and factual. It's not just about football, it's about the person and it's about the lad. It's about what he's going through and what he's not going through.

"He's not just a lump of meat that people are throwing around. He's got emotions and we're trying to protect him," Pulis insisted.
