West Brom have now made a move for Schlupp and hope to make the ‎23-year-old their second signing of the summer, after the £5million capture of QPR winger Matt Phillips.

Pulis is determined to sign a left-sided defender ahead of the new season and had considered Leeds United defender Charlie Taylor, but Schlupp appeals due to his Premier League experience.

Schlupp impressed towards the end of Leicester's historic title triumph but ‎only signed a new contract in June last year.
