Albion yet to decide on No 1 target

Transfer chief Dan Ashworth has revealed the field remains wide open in Albion's hunt for a new goalkeeper.

The Hawthorns sporting director insists the Baggies are still looking at home and abroad for potential replacements for Scott Carson, despite England duo Ben Foster and Robert Green emerging as leading targets.

Boss Roy Hodgson wants a new No 1 after allowing Carson to leave for Turkish side Bursaspor.

And Ashworth said: "It is no secret, we need a goalkeeper and we're going to get a goalkeeper. My job is to make sure we explore every single possibility, both here and abroad.

"Everybody is putting two and two together and perhaps getting five, with regard to goalkeepers that are available in the United Kingdom.

"Goalkeepers have been touted for moves from their clubs either because of relegation, because they're free or their club has brought in another goalkeeper.

"So they automatically get linked to us. Of course they are all top goalkeepers - but there are plenty of good goalkeepers out in Europe as well.

"I've got to make sure that we get the right value, have plenty of options and get the best keeper we can get."
