# West Brom identify replacements for Chelsea’s striker target

![Austin](https://cdn.footballtransfertavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/Austin-500x314.jpg)West Brom fans in the Transfer Tavern are experiencing mixed emotions this morning, as rumours that they are set to lose one of their young stars begins to gather pace.

[As the express reports, the Baggies look set to have a fight to keep Saido Berahino at the club, with Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea and Newcastle United all interested.](https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/620382/West-Brom-January-fight-Saido-Berahino-Tony-Pulis-Charlie-Austin-Matt-Phillips-news)

Last summer, Berahino stated that he would not play for chairman Jeremy Peace again, after a potential move to Tottenham broke down. Since then, Berahino has turned out for West Brom, but it is likely that he will again seek a move away.

It isn’t all doom and gloom for Baggies fans however. [The same article also reports that West Brom are chasing QPR duo Charlie Austin and Matt Phillips as possible replacements.](https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/620382/West-Brom-January-fight-Saido-Berahino-Tony-Pulis-Charlie-Austin-Matt-Phillips-news)

Austin, who scored 18 goals in the top flight last year, would certainly soften the blow of losing Berahino, while Phillips has also enjoyed a good start to the season.

**Baggies fans, would Austin or Phillips be a good replacement for Berahino? How much should you get for him? Let us know in the comments below!**
