These West Brom fans have been discussing the latest Mislav Orsic rumours coming from the Croatian press.
According to the Croatian news outlet Sportske Novosti, Orsic has been quite intrigued by West Brom with the media outlet also going as far to say “WBA tell us that they are able to offer Dinamo five, maybe six million pounds.”
This news was later relayed to the West Brom fans via WBA Report on Twitter. The responses were mainly positive, but one or two fans still don’t believe they will land this deal.
Here are some of the West Brom fans’ comments on the transfer rumour:

West Brom are preparing a £5M bid for Dinamo Zagreb forward Mislav Orsic this week.
Slaven Bili? had shortlisted the 27-year-old as his primary target for the January transfer window, and negotiations are now underway.

In fairness, in the same article – they also said Zohore had scored 12 league goals… so maybe take it with a pinch of salt.

It will be great if we can get him in a prolific striker and a couple of solid defenders and this team would take some beating.

Is Mislav Orsic going to join West Brom in January?
Yes
No
The West Brom fans that believe the deal will happen are all speaking highly of Orsic, which is no real surprise given the 27-year-old has scored 11 goals in 13 1.HNL games so far this season.
Good signing if it happens

What Do We Think?
Orsic’s goal tally in the Croatian top division this season shows that the 27-year-old could be more than capable of scoring in the Championship. However, the deal will always be reliant on the financials, but with talk of £5m to £6m flying around, that doesn’t seem too impossible for West Brom to find.
