West Brom boss Tony Pulis does not expect Saido Berahino to ever join Tottenham.

The former England U21 striker is poised for a return to the Baggies side against Southampton on Saturday having missed the last three games - just over a week after he issued a strike threat on Twitter following Spurs' failed bids to sign him on deadline day.

Reports have suggested the north London club could come back in for Berahino in January, but Pulis believes the deal is dead.

"Personally I don't think Tottenham will ever come back," he said. "I don't think that will happen.

"There are other clubs out there who if they're interested, they're interested, but I'm sure Saido will deal with it in a different way to how he did this time.

"I just think most probably the two clubs have tried to do a deal and it's not worked and not happened. I don't see Daniel (Levy, Tottenham chairman) coming back to try to sign Saido again. I might be wrong.
