Marseille eyeing West Brom starlet Tyler Roberts

Olympique Marseille are eyeing West Brom starlet Tyler Roberts.

Off contract in June, Roberts is currently on-loan at Walsall.

West Brom want the young forward to stay but face the real prospect of losing him and heading to a tribunal to determine a training compensation fee, says the Daily Mail.

However, that could be compounded should Roberts be tempted abroad by French side Marseille who potentially would only need to pay a compensation fee of around £280,000.

Roberts made his first team debut for Albion in 2016, coming on as a substitute against Liverpool. The Wales U21 international has since had spells out on loan at Oxford United and Shrewsbury Town.
