West Brom have made a
third contract offer to Saido Berahino
despite the striker's wretched year. The 23years old, who has only made
five appearances this season, sees his current deal expire at the end
of the season after a succession of confusing transfer windows since Tottenham's failed bid in 2015.
Without an
agreement, the Baggies will lose Berahino for a tribunal fee in the
summer and could see him go for almost nothing if he moves abroad. Berahino
currently earns £20,000-a-week at The Hawthorns and a new contract
is expected to at least double his wages, while discussions are ongoing
with a release clause expected to be included
Manager Tony Pulis
said “We've made Saido an offer and we're
trying to get him to sign, It's there, the offer is there, it's a fantastic
offer. We've made it hoping the lad will sign, it's up to him and his
people to come back and negotiate. He's a talented player, it shows how
talented he is because the club are still making offers now. I said four
windows ago if I was Saido I would have signed it. You could have a buyout
clause in the contract if someone came in and offered the money. All that
stuff has been put to him and his representatives. The great thing about
this is it will go either way so I won't have to talk about it in the
next window. If we don't sign him his contract runs out.”
