The Daily Mail report that West Brom have joined the stacked competition for Tottenham defender Kyle Walker-Peters, with plenty of Premier League clubs also interested in the 22-year-old fullback this January, who is looking increasingly likely to leave Spurs.

No
Despite having Premier League experience and being fairly young, some West Brom supporters on social media didn’t think Walker-Peters would be a smart signing for the Baggies this window, with fans hoping an attacker can be brought in this month rather than a fullback.
Here’s what a few West Brom fans had to say on Twitter about the club’s reported interest in Walker-Peters…

A rightback? We have Furlong, still have Ferguson and O’Shea has played decently there

£12m for a position that’s not needed to be filled atm. Not for now thanks.
