Highly-rated West Brom winger Tom Fellows is wanted by Everton and Leeds United, SportsBoom can exclusively reveal. With top-flight clubs circling and exciting fixtures ahead, now’s a great time to explore the latest betting welcome bonus offers before the next round of action.
The Baggies ace recently played for England at the European Under-21 Championship in Slovakia as Lee Carsley’s side made a successful title-defence.
And there has been growing interest in trying to prize Fellows away from the Hawthorns, with the Toffees previously linked to the player, and Leeds also now in the frame to make a move.
The 21-year-old attacking threat has quickly established as a regular in the West Brom first team, having been a key player over the past two seasons.
And the club’s previous Young Player of the Year winner has aspirations to play in the top flight having missed out on the chance to make his Premier League debut the following season.
Fellows spent the 2022/23 season on loan at League Two Crawley Town to get some much-needed first-team football under his belt, before he broke into the West Brom setup in the summer of 2023.
BRIMMING WITH CONFIDENCE
Everton boss David Moyes is believed to be a big admirer of the young talent and is keen to add youth ahead of the new Premier League next which starts next month.
But our sources have also learnt promoted Leeds, back in the top-flight after two years in the Championship, are keen to recruit Fellows.
The winger was granted extended leave from pre-season duties with the Baggies because of his international call-up.
And he still has two years remaining on his current contract with the club.
But Everton and Leeds are both hopeful they can push a deal through to sign Fellows ahead of the start of the new season.
