West Bromwich Albion boss Tony Pulis has revealed that he will discuss transfer plans with Baggies chairman Jeremy Peace 'over dinner' on Friday evening.
The Premier League side are expected to be active in this month's window, with players due to arrive and indeed leave The Hawthorns.
Pulis remained tight-lipped on his exact plans, but has hinted at a frank discussion with Peace before the end of the week.
"I'm having dinner with Jeremy on Friday and we can sit down and have a quick chat about the way he sees it, the way I see it, and then we can go from there," Pulis told the Express & Star.
"Things are bubbling behind the scenes but nothing's come to the surface. Jeremy will decide. I had my views in the summer, Jeremy has got his views. The chairman runs the football club when it comes to the finances and it's his decision in the end what to do with it."
Stoke City are the latest club being linked with West Brom striker Saido Berahino, whose attitude has been called into question since a move to Tottenham Hotspur broke down last summer.
