West Brom in contract negotiations with quintet

Ian Watson

Craig Dawson: In talks, along with Morrison and Olsson

West Brom are in talks with five players over new contracts, with Craig Dawson reportedly closest to putting pen to paper. 

Dawson has been discussing terms for some time, according to the Telegraph, which also reports that James Morrison, Stephane Sessegnon, Gareth McAuley and Jonas Olsson are conducting negotiations over new deals.

All four all out of contract in the summer, but Tony Pulis is keen to keep the core of his squad together at The Hawthorns.

Sessegnon looked set to be on his way out of Albion last summer but his form of late has prompted the club to open talks.

Victor Anichebe is also a few months from becoming a free agent.
