Report: Middlesbrough keen on West Bromwich Albion winger Matt Phillips

Middlesbrough have reportedly joined the race to sign West Bromwich Albion winger Matt Phillips this summer.

The 27-year-old has been with West Brom since the summer of 2016, joining from Queens Park Rangers in a reported £5.5m deal.

Since joining the Baggies, Phillips has registered six goals in 57 Premier League appearances, but could not prevent the club from being relegated last term.

According to the Birmingham Mail, Boro boss Tony Pulis - who previously worked with Phillips at The Hawthorns - wants a reunion with his former player and is prepared to table a bid.

The Scotland international has two years left to run on his Albion contract.
