Baggies play waiting game on deals
West Brom sporting and technical director Dan Ashworth insists the Baggies will not make any panic buys over the remainder of the summer.[LNB] Albion have so far signed Pablo Ibanez and Steven Reid - both on free transfers - plus Gabriel Tamas in a £800,000 deal.[LNB]Ashworth revealed the Baggies have several more targets on the horizon but will not sign players of insufficient quality.[LNB]He said: "We've got feelers and enquiries out on several different targets. There are conversations ongoing.[LNB]"If one of our top targets comes up and the deal is do-able, then we will do it.[LNB]"But we won't jump in for number six on our list for the sake of bringing in a player. We would be wise in holding on to get the right player."[LNB]Ashworth also admitted West Brom will look to make use of loan deals to help strengthen the squad which gained promotion from the Championship.[LNB]The Baggies have been linked with signing Liverpool striker David NGog on a temporary basis and Ashworth added: "The loan market is something we want to exploit.[LNB]"You maybe fill your squad and, once you have your main targets, you get a loan player in to fill a key position, perhaps.[LNB]"The chairman has alluded to it already, that for a loan signing, a Bosman, or a relatively low transfer fee, we can then bring in a player on higher wages."[LNB]Meanwhile, West Brom confirmed on their website that they are in talks with Villarreal over the possible transfer of midfielder Borja Valero away from The Hawthorns.[LNB]Valero has been given permission to train with the Spanish club and undergo a medical while discussions continue.
