Seems pretty obvious West Brom are stringing Kipre along. If I was him I'd tell them to do one. West Brom mulling move for Cedric Kipre By Matt Maher | West Bromwich Albion | Published: Less than an hour ago Albion will weigh up their options before deciding whether to pursue a move for Wigan defender Cedric Kipre. Cedric Kipre of Wigan Athletic blocks a shot from Matheus Pereira of West Bromwich Albion (AMA) Advertising DON’T JUST GO OUT, GO ALL OUT. Promoted by JAGUAR The Baggies have held talks over the 23-year-old and are increasingly confident it is a deal they can get done. But they are expected to check on other targets before pushing ahead. Blackburn are believed to have agreed a fee of £900,000 for Kipre but the player would prefer a Premier League move and Albion may offer one. Sporting director Luke Dowling is determined to get the maximum from what is a relatively tight budget as Albion prepare for a top flight return. In addition to Kipre, talks have also taken place with Brighton over defender Shane Duffy and goalkeeper David Button. ADVERTISING The Seagulls want around £1million for the latter, though the Baggies are hoping to agree a lower fee. Albion will also decide this week whether to push ahead with a move for Watford striker Troy Deeney, while they remain in discussions with Benfica over another loan deal for midfielder Filip Krovinovic. Matheus Pereira remains Albion’s only permanent signing since winning promotion in July. It is believed the Baggies have around £20million in total to spend. Preparations on the pitch for a top flight campaign now less than a fortnight away will continue today when the Baggies play their latest warm-up match. Slaven Bilic’s men are set to face an EFL opponent, who have requested all details of the behind closed doors fixture are kept private. Conor Townsend and Kenneth Zohore are expected to get their first taste of pre-season action after both missed Saturday’s 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest through injury.

West Brom seem to be doing this with a few players, talking to plenty but not finalising anything. Been in talks with Callum Robinson for a while as well. Their local paper today doesn't even mention Kipre, just that they want Krovinovic back after being on loan with them last season https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.expressandstar.com/sport/football/west-bromwich-albion/2020/08/31/west-brom-closing-on-filip-krovinovic-deal/&ved=2ahUKEwi68qf-8sXrAhUEXRUIHbUSDIEQlO8DMAN6BAgLEAc&usg=AOvVaw0l-K4DPC6sIGr9Dt3jNDSC&cshid=1598892582604

And Raya. ?

Souness's best 2 signings without a doubt

http://c.newsnow.co.uk/A/1044784457?-: looks good what bit you can see

http://c.newsnow.co.uk/A/1044777092?-: Dont know if this has been mentioned yet?

https://www.footballinsider247.com/exclusive-club-respond-to-celtic-7-figure-defender-offer-player-wants-move/ Looks like Duffys move to Celtic could be off if this is to be believed. Good news perhaps Celtic now looking at Ben Davies apparently from pne

Is it OK to start getting excited about our chances this season? ??

I'd always thought of him as a left back but you're right, transfer market has his main position as right back but also can play LB and CB.

As expected, central defender chat dominated the press conference. Things certainly moving in terms of incoming(s) and outgoing(s) in that area, with #Rovers hopeful there's deals to be done in the coming days.

Maghoma signed for Gillingham. Obviously not a target

Rich Sharpe has already said its a domestic transfer if it comes off so can't be him

When will keepers learn? ???

Wonder if Stevie G. has found his way back into the ground yet after THAT step over against Liverpool ???

Happy 50th birthday Tugay, Rovers legend. Thanks for the memories. ??

On another note, happy birthday to Tugay, 50 years young today and could still have that ball on a piece of string. Thanks for the memories!

Do you think we have enough of a budget to go for Ben Whiteman after we’ve picked up a CB (or 2), 2 GKs and a LB? Rich Sharpe @richsharpe89 Replying to @ruaneythethief working on a story now that will cover all of that.

From nicko Blackburn. Ready to snap up young striker Connor McBride. Leaving Celtic. Scottish youth cap.

Rich Sharpe supposed to be doing a piece on Defenders today, so probably know more then. Trust him more than nicko!

Probably make more sense if it's Portsmouth tbh.

Lined up for a move to League 1 according to Rich Sharpe. Rumours are Fleetwood

Don't think there's a keeper around who hasn't got a weakness, standard so poor. Chelsea paid 70m for their keeper and can't wait to get shut of him. Just hope this deal doesn't get scuppered, he sounds about as good as we can get

That was June as you said
