WATFORD are leading the £16.5million chase for Salomon Rondon.
The West Brom striker has a release clause that will get activated when relegation from the Premier League is confirmed.
And Javi Gracia’s Watford have shown interest in keeping him in the top flight next season.
Venezuela international Rondon, 28, was a £30million target for Chinese Super League team Tianjin Quanjian last year – but can get snapped up in a cut-price deal.
West Brom are still likely to get a small profit on the £12m they paid Zenit St Petersburg three years ago when they made him their record signing at the time.
He is likely to be among the players leaving the Hawthorns in the summer along with Northern Ireland centre-back Jonny Evans.
Meanwhile, Cameroon striker Karl Toko Ekambi is being tracked by THREE clubs in the Premier League.
Newcastle, Brighton and Everton have watched the 25-year-old hit double figures for goals playing for Angers in the French top flight.

They are weighing up a £20m move for the ex-Sochaux forward, who has also attracted interest from Villarreal in Spain.
Angers are set to cash in this summer after two seasons at the club where he has impressed over two seasons.
