The Baggies are looking to improve their squad following last season's promotion. Bilic is close to sealing a permanent deal for Filip Krovinovic following his successful loan and they have also been linked with a £1m move for Brighton No 2 goalkeeper David Button and Watford striker Troy Deeney.

Last Saturday Graham Potter's Albion played out an encouraging 1-1 friendly draw against Chelsea in front of 2,500 fans at the Amex.

It was a chance for Brighton's new signings Adam Lallana and Joel Veltman to have a run-out, while returning loanee Ben White also featured in the Brighton rearguard.

A late penalty from Pascal Gross cancelled out an early strike from Chelsea's new signing Timo Werner.

Albion also played League One Portsmouth in a friendly on August 22 at the Elite Performance Centre before the match with Chelsea last weekend.

Potter will be without six of his first-team squad for West Brom with Leandro Trossard (Belgium), Joel Veltman (Holland), Aaron Connolly, Shane Duffy, Jayson Molumby (Republic of Ireland) and Viktor Gyokeres (Sweden) all on international duty.
