.. Will Micky miss out on Roberts? (30/08/03)


Micky could miss out in securing the services of Jason Roberts, West Brom's want away striker.

Apparently he has the chance to come to us for the season on loan if he can't agree terms with Wigan who have come up with enough money, £2.5m, for him at the last minute.

Baggies Chairman Jeremy Peace added: "We reluctantly accepted Jason's transfer request on Thursday, July 3. We have fully explored all our options since and Wigan are the only club to have produced an offer the board finds acceptable.

"However, should Jason feel on footballing grounds he doesn't want to go there, we have also accepted a season-long loan offer from Leicester City.

"Although loaning Jason out was never our preference, this way he would get Premiership football while we would be suitably recompensed as Leicester have matched the terms we proposed."

Meanwhile, the transfer window will be extended to Monday afternoon to match the Champions League deadline rather than Sunday, the end of August. Gives Micky a chance to get someone else in?
