West Brom chiefs confident of no mass exodus

West Brom chiefs are confident there won't be a massive exodus after their relegation.

Goalkeeper Sam Johnstone is interesting Tottenham and West Ham while defender Semi Ajayi and playmaker Matheus Pereira are also attracting suitors.

But Albion are confident they can keep the bulk of their squad at The Hawthorns as they target an immediate return to the Premier League.

And some of those who played a vital role in helping Albion escape the Championship 12 months ago, such as Grady Diangana, Callum Robinson, Dara O'Shea and Darnell Furlong, should be around to attempt a second crack at it.

Albion must also settle on who will guide that promotion campaign.

Their performances have improved since Sam Allardyce took charge in December and the club and Allardyce have yet to decide whether to extend the arrangement, says the Daily Mail.
