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

WOLVES

Wolverhampton Wanderers and Cardiff City are eyeing a move for Reading winger Hal Robson-Kanu.

The Reading academy graduate has only ever played for the Royals, other than loan spells at Southend United and Swindon Town, and has made 169 appearances for the Berkshire outfit.

Leicester City are in pole position to sign Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Bakary Sako following successful talks with the players representatives. Aston Villa, Everton, Newcastle United, Stoke City, Sunderland and West Bromwich Albion are all said to be monitoring the situation.

Wolves are lining up a potential third bid for Cardiff City forward Joe Mason.

So far Kenny Jackett has been thwarted in his approaches for Mason.

His first bid was reportedly made around the £1.5million mark for the 24-year-old. It's unclear what the second bid was, but it is now thought that Wolves could be edging closer to an agreeable fee.

WEST BROM

Jazz Richards performance last weekend has made him a man in demand and whilst a move to Fulham remains very much on the horizon it is now believed that Premier League clubs Crystal Palace and West Bromwich Albion are also interested in securing his signature.

West Brom boss Tony Pulis wants to sign Crystal Palace goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey and QPR winger Matt Phillips this summer.

Pulis will make moves for the London pair in order to continue a revamp of the squad this summer.

ASTON VILLA

Aston Villa have stolen a march on a host of clubs by tabling an attractive offer to Nice for left-back Jordan Amavi.

Villa boss Tim Sherwood is on the lookout for a new left-back having tried several players in the position since taking over as manager, with Alan Hutton and Kieran Richardson rotating in the role.

WALSALL

Huddersfield midfielder Oscar Gobern is a target for three League One clubs, Coventry City, Crewe Alexandra and Walsall, as he prepares to end his stay with the Terriers.
