West Brom boss Allardyce admits he needs to buy

West Brom boss Sam Allardyce admits he needs to buy this month.

The Baggies' manager hopes to bring in a forward to bolster his attacking options, with Bournemouth's Josh King a possible target if sufficient funds are available for the Norway international.

"No idea what the price may be [for King] - if the price is within our range then I think we would be interested, and if it's out of our price range then we won't," Allardyce said.

"It's a part of our process now to work tirelessly on outs and ins until the end of January. There's no point me beating about the bush - everybody knows what we need to do.

"We need to move players in this window, everybody does. We need to bring players in this window, everybody does.

"But no one more so than we do. We need players in more than anyone else in the Premier League to give us a chance of moving out of the position we're in."
