West Brom move for Bournemouth striker Josh King

West Brom are moving for Bournemouth striker Josh King.

The Norwegian was in high-demand last summer, when West Ham and Torino both tested the Cherries' resolve.

Bids of £13million and £7m respectively were knocked back, however, with Bournemouth not concerned over losing King on a free transfer upon the expiry of his contract at the end of the season, having only paid £1m for him back in 2015.

But with the striker having failed to hit the ground running back in the Championship this term, the Cherries may be willing to let the 28-year-old go on the cheap this month.

The Daily Mail says West Brom are interested in signing King to bolster their survival bid.
