West Bromwich Albion are trying to keep hold of forward Tom Fellows amid mounting interest from Championship rivals Leicester City and Southampton.

The highly rated 20-year old is out of contract at the end of the season and Albion are keen to get him to sign new terms.

Fellows has been at the club from Under 10 level and has impressed in their youth sides and Premier League 2 as he progressed through the ranks.

Albion are in the process of being taken over and the prospective new owners have already indicated they want Fellows to stay but Leicester and Southampton sense an opportunity to snap up a young, versatile player of potential and are monitoring developments ahead of January.
