New West Brom manager Tony Pulis wants Blackburn striker Rudy Gestede to join him at the Hawthorns. The giant Frenchman has been in fine form in the Championship and Pulis wants him to replace the outgoing Giorgos Samaras.

Pulis wants to bring in 26-year-old Benin international Gestede, who has 24 goals in 44 league games since joining Rovers from Cardiff last January after a successful loan spell, alongside Berahino.
