Albion are poised to seal the signing of centre forward Sam Vokes from Wolves.

The Welsh international watched tonight's FA Cup win against Newcastle at The Amex from the directors' box.

An announcement is expected from the club on Monday confirming the capture of the 22-year-old Welsh international.

The Argus first broke news of Albion's interest in Vokes at the beginning of January.

The former Bournemouth marksman recently completed his fifth loan spell away from Molineux at Championship rivals Burnley.

Vokes fits the bill as the robust partner for Craig Mackail-Smith boss Gus Poyet has been looking for.

He could go straight into the side for Tuesday's visit to arch rivals Crystal Palace.

Wahey. Great night gets better.

Astute signing. Loan with view to permanent at the end of the season? I know they're keen to sell him.

The article doesn't stipulate whether its a loan or a permanent signing?

29 goals in 148 appearances. Young, with plenty of time to improve but that ratio has to get better.

 

[Biscuit]

Only 22? Fantastic news.

No Hoskins and Noone staying. Gus is slowly building his young Squad.

Great news.

No it doesn't. Totally dependent on what sort of forward player he is. That would be totally acceptable for a Heskey-type player, bringing the best out of all players around them.

29 goals in 148 appearances. Young, with plenty of time to improve but that ratio has to get better.

If he had say 30 goal assists in that 148 games then his value would seem more apparent as a strike partner.
