Latest transfer rumours – October 26

Expressandstar.com bring you transfer talk from Wolves, West Brom, Aston Villa, Birmingham and Walsall.

We have scoured the back pages and the internet to bring you the latest gossip.

We are not saying they are true – just that they are out there.

WOLVES

Wolves will try to get a number of players involved in tonight’s Carling Cup tie a loan move if they are eliminated from the competition.

WEST BROM

West Brom midfielder George Thorne is expected to choose Birmingham over Derby County in a loan move to the Championship.

ASTON VILLA

Simon Poulsen’s claims of having no contact about a move to Aston Villa from AZ Alkmaar are seen as little more than a ‘come and get me’ plea.

BIRMINGHAM

Birmingham are expecting another bid from Premier League side Newcastle for defender Liam Ridgewell in the January transfer window.

WALSALL

All quiet at the Saddlers, take that as a sign that David Martin won’t be coming back to the Saddlers on loan from Derby County.
