England international in three-way tug of war

The one-time England international is said to be ready to make a fresh start this summer, with Southampton holding out for a fee in the region of £15million.

Premier League trio, West Brom, Burnley and Newly-promoted Newcastle are all seriously considering a move. 'The Daily Mail' reports that Tony Pulis' West Brom bid for the player in January and look set to follow up that interest with another bid this summer.

The 27-year-old striker made 36 appearances last season, scoring 6 goals.He is considered surplus to requirements at St Mary's due to the impact made by Manolo Gabbiadini who scored 6 goals in 12 games for 'the saints' following his arrival from Napoli in January.
