Portsmouth and Blackburn Rovers are both interested in signing English West Brom defender Alfie Gilchrist for their defensive units. According to Mark McAdam of Sky Sports News, the two Championship clubs have the 22-year-old as a loan target in the current transfer window. West Brom signed Gilchrist from Chelsea last summer for a fee of £1.2m, which could potentially rise to £2m, and he is under contract until 2029. The club's position on his future has not been revealed. It has been suggested that they might decide to sell if an offer over £2m is made, partly due to their financial situation. From West Brom's perspective, a loan move is considered a pointless exit. A transfer to Portsmouth is seen as making little sense because they are not expected to be looking for a centre-back or right-back, unless Terry Devlin departs. In the 2025/2026 Championship season, Gilchrist made 43 appearances and provided 2 assists. His current Transfermarkt market value is €3.50m.
