Gera: Uncertain future

Zoltan Gera's agent claims the midfielder will leave West Brom at the end of the season.

Gera's current contract expires in the summer and he could leave The Hawthorns for nothing in the summer.

The winger's future could depend on West Brom's bid to win promotion with The Baggies having a better chance of keeping Gera if they return to the Premier League next season.

Gera, who came close to joining Middlesbrough in January 2007, is thought be a target for a host of Premier League clubs and Gera's agent Vladan Filipovic believes the Hungarian international should be playing for a club competing in Europe.

"I wasn't his agent that time [when Middlesbrough tried to sign him] so all I can say is that Zoltan surely leaves the team at the end of the season," Filipovic told Nemzeti Sport.

"Some teams from the Premiership would like to sign him but we don't adhere to England - there are interested sides from other countries as well.

"The main point is that he should get to a team which is involved either in the Champions League or in the Uefa Cup. Zoli's place should be in a European football competition."
