West Brom in talks with West Ham for Cole

West Bromwich Albion are in talks for West Ham United striker Carlton Cole.

Baggies manager Tony Pulis has made an approach for Cole as he prepares for Brown Ideye's departure.

West Ham, however, are reluctant to let Cole go without having a replacement. Andy Carroll also picked up an injury in Saturday's defeat to Liverpool.

Rickie Lambert of Liverpool remains an alternative option for Albion.
