Juve and Atlético Madrid leading the race for West Brom teenager | OneFootball

Juventus and Atlético Madrid are just two of the clubs reportedly interested in signing West Brom defender Nathan Ferguson.

Ferguson has been a revelation for Slaven Bilic’s side this term, starting in 10 of the Baggies first 12 games at right-back.

The 19-year-old joined West Brom aged eight and signed his first professional contract two years ago to keep him at The Hawthorns until next summer.

The Baggies have been hoping to tie the teenager down to a long-term contract, however according to The Athletic those talks haven’t progressed as hoped.

Ferguson is thought to be happy in the west Midlands and won’t agitate for a move, however should those contract negotiations fail he would have no choice but to leave his boyhood club.

Should such a situation prevail, The Athletic say that the defender would be keen to move abroad, with Juventus and Atleti leading the queue for his signature.
