West Bromwich Albion face a waiting game in their pursuit of Nottingham Forest winger Michail Antonio.

Forest have slapped a ‘not for sale’ sign on the 25-year-old but it is understood the player may well push for the move.

Tony Pulis has not yet given up on Antonio who looks a far more likely option than QPR’s Matt Phillips.

Pulis has already signed James McClean from Wigan and has a number of other targets including Arsenal’s Serge Gnabry.

Pulis is also keen to push on with his pursuit of a new striker.

Liverpool’s Rickie Lambert remains an option but he is not near the top of the Albion boss’ shopping list.

As time goes on though, and with Liverpool clearly set to strengthen in that area, a move for Lambert becomes more likely.

Albion have at least cleared the decks for a new arrival to an extent with the departure of Greek striker Georgios Samaras, whose contract was cancelled by mutual consent.
