# West Brom: Baggies eye Rhys Healey

**[According to TEAMtalk](https://www.teamtalk.com/news/exclusive-wba-boro-lead-five-club-chase-5m-rated-toulouse-english-striker), West Bromwich Albion are one of a number of clubs interested in Toulouse striker Rhys Healey.**

### **Baggies eye Healey**

The Baggies are believed to be in pursuit of Healey, who made the move from Milton Keynes Dons to the French side only last summer.

Toulouse paid £1.1m for his services ([Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/sources-comolli-spearheads-7-figure-mk-dons-signing-as-terms-revealed/)), and the Ligue 2 team are now said to be looking for [£5m](https://www.teamtalk.com/news/exclusive-wba-boro-lead-five-club-chase-5m-rated-toulouse-english-striker) if they are to part ways with the Englishman – that represents almost a 400% rise in value. Along with West Brom, Middlesbrough, Sheffield United, Norwich City and Bournemouth are all in pursuit.

### **Interesting option**

21 goals in 42 matches for Milton Keynes put Healey on the map ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/rhys-healey/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/238185)). Still, it was surprising to see him move to the French side – that is a path rarely travelled. However, he has settled in fantastically in the south of France, scoring [nine](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/rhys-healey/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/238185) in his first 19 games for his new club. All in all, he has [61](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/rhys-healey/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/238185) goals as a professional.

For a player who has appeared just four times in the Premier League by the age of 26, £5m would be a considerable amount of money to pay, and a concrete move from the Hawthorns outfit may depend on whether they are able to stay in the top flight this campaign. Either way, Healey is a player who is on the rise – it remains to be seen where he ends up.
