Berahino due for Albion talks

Last updated : 07 September 2015 By Wba-mad Editor

Saido Berahino is expected to hold talks with club officials today over his Twitter outburst last week.

Berahino is set to be fined for his Twitter posts where he indicated he would never play under Jeremy Peace reign again.

The striker is expected to back down from his claims but will be hit with a fine in the region of £50,000.

Weekend reports suggested Albion would discuss a new contract with Berahino with a £25m buy-out clause and a structured payment plan which would be acceptable to Albion’s board.

Baggies boss Tony Pulis admits it may be difficult to integrate Berahino back into Albion’s squad after his petulant outburst.

“I have spoken to Saido on the phone a couple of times and by text," said Pulis.

"He has had a couple of days away and hopefully that will clear his mind.

"On Monday I will have a good chat with him and then take him and his mum out for dinner in the evening to have a good chat.

"I think his tweet was aimed at the chairman more than the players, management, staff, supporters of the club."
