Former Town midfielder Nigel Reo-Coker is being targeted by Premier League West Brom, according to a report this morning. Reo-Coker left Portman Road earlier in the month at the end of his short-term spell having been unable to agree new terms.

The Baggies are looking for a replacement for youngster George Thorne, who has suffered a knee ligament injury. As a free agent Reo-Coker can join Albion outside the transfer window.

Town offered the 28-year-old a contract until the end of the season but the former Wimbledon, Aston Villa, West Ham and Bolton man wanted a longer term deal.

BrettenhamBlue added 09:33 - Feb 2 Struggled at Champonship Level. Would have thought he would be better in League 1 (where he could make a definite impact). Strange decision by West Brom but they are welcome to him. His effort at times was poor but he had a good set of lungs.

IvorFeeling added 09:42 - Feb 2 massive disconnect between the ability he thinks he has and reality! Not sure he would even make the Bury midfield!

yorksblue added 10:13 - Feb 2 That's WBAs decline sealed then, in the same way that applied to West Ham, Villa and Bolton when he was there.

blueherts added 12:49 - Feb 2 I am sorry for WBA !!! Surely anybody he saw him for us would realise - this is a player in serious decline - Still who cares - I am more concerened about how our Midfield does today and hopefully seeing Wordsworth get some time - feel strangely confident today - which , after recent home performances - not sure why , Hope McGoldrick scores - Loved Mogga , Venus and Clapham but not today

Talbs77 added 19:16 - Feb 3 Ha ha heres no way, on the performances I saw from Reo-Coker, that he's a Premier League player. If West Brom think he is, more fool them. Saying that, I greatly respect their stance on Odenwinge, made him look a fool along with his greed ridden agent(s). If more clubs took the same stance the game would be in a better state.
