(Bleacher Report) After a great first season back in the Premier League, West Bromwich Albion will be hoping to hold onto one of their key performers this season in Chris Brunt. The Northern Ireland international established himself as the team's new captain, and under former Liverpool boss Roy Hodgson the Baggies avoided relegation.


In hopes of doing so again it will be key for them to hold on to guy like Brunt. However, the lure of big-name clubs like Liverpool might be to much to keep him settled. At 26 years old in many cases he is past the age group that Fenway Sports Group have wanted to target, but at an £8 million price tag as opposed to many other players in the near £20 million range he might be a steal.

Despite the rumors, Brunt appears happy at West Brom for now according to Sporting Life, but that remains to be seen as the summer window has only just began.
