Dorrans and Do-heon still on Mowbray's radar

Tony Mowbray has revealed that deals for Livingston's free scoring Graeme Dorrans and South Korean international Kim Do-heon are still possible despite the transfer window closing in just four days.


Scotland Under-21 international Dorrans impressed during a three day trial earlier in the month with Mowbray predicting a bright future for the youngster.

"He did very well and looks like a talented boy but we will have to see whether it goes any further in the next few days," the Albion boss said.

"There may be a conversation to be had, but at the same time they will have a value and we will have a value, so we will see if anything develops.

"In my opinion, you should try and have as much talent in your football club as possible - and this boy has talent.

"Whether he is ready for our team at the moment I would say probably not.

"There is obviously raw material there and I think he would become a big plus for the club sometime in the future.

"But, again, he is not one that I am stamping my feet about.

"If things happens, great.

"If they don't, good luck to the boy."

Whilst remaining positive about a possible transfer for the 20-year-old Mowbray was far more philosophical about securing the services of Do-heon after weekend reports linked the midfielder with Championship rivals Watford.

"I would suggest watch this space on that one really," Mowbray continued.

"We've a few days to go and there is still a potential for things to develop.

"If he has got other options then good luck to him really.

"I'm making a judgement from seeing the boy train for less than two hours and never seeing him play, other than on DVD.

"But there is very obvious talent there, we respect his record and he has played 40 odd times for his country."
