The Ladbrokes Premiership champions were still said to be keen on the 27-year-old playmaker, though it now seems they will have to turn their attention to other targets.

West Brom boss Slaven Bilic confirmed the transfer was almost complete, saying Sawyers was "coming back home" after he spent his formative football years at the Midlands club before moving to Walsall in 2012.

Sawyers, who is a St Kitts and Nevis international, will cost West Brom a fee of around £3 million.
