The minimum price West Brom would surely accept for Tom Fellows

West Bromwich Albion winger Tom Fellows enjoyed a breakthrough season with the Baggies in the 2023/24 season, and is one of the club’s brightest young academy graduates in recent times.

At just 21, the England youth international pronounced himself as one of the best young talents in the Championship last season, scoring four times and providing three assists in 35 league games.

These displays were rewarded with a new contract extension in January, taking him through until the summer of 2027.

A two-footed winger, Fellows can operate on either flank, making him a versatile attacking weapon that can be shifted around mid-game to best exploit a matchup with a particular defender.

Paired with his trademark step over before crossing into the box, Fellows relies on his technique, ball control and dribbling ability to beat his defender, and create scoring opportunities for himself and his teammates at a very high level for his age.

Inevitably, top clubs are always on the lookout for a bright young star emerging that they can steal away from a lower league, and if he continues his progression this season, Albion may have a tough task on their hands in keeping him at the Hawthorns.

So, how much should West Brom command as a minimum asking price for the talented winger? Football League World investigates…

West Brom hinted at their possible Fellows valuation in the summer

Albion would have hoped that by signing Fellows to a new long-term deal, that interest from other clubs may have cooled off as a result, given that no cut-price bargain was going to be had. But, that wasn’t the case.

Instead, strong interest arrived from multiple Premier League clubs. Football Insider exclusively reported that Ipswich Town were in advanced talks over an £11m move for Fellows in the final hours of the window, but no deal ever materialised.
