West Bromwich Albion are keen to change Leicester City’s mind and want them to do a u-turn over Harvey Barnes.

According to the Express and Star, West Bromwich Albion are planning to try and change Leicester City’s mind over recalling Harvey Barnes in January.

Barnes has made a wonderful start to life at the Hawthorns since joining on loan, but he has impressed so much that Leicester now want the youngster back.

If West Brom do lose Barnes in January it would be a major blow to their attack, and Darren Moore’s side are now planning to enter discussions with Leicester to persuade them to keep the England youth international with them.

Barnes already has five goals to his name for the season, and he has also been a constant source of assists.

Breaking into Leicester’s team would not be guaranteed though, as the Foxes have so many attacking options.

Barnes would be competing with the likes of James Maddison, Demarai Gray and Ricardo Pereira for a first-team place.

West Brom are the Championship’s top scorers currently and will be doing everything they can to keep Barnes around.
