Nancy striker Marc-Antoine Fortune is believed to have snubbed offers from West Brom and Ipswich.

Reports emanating from France suggest Premier League new boys West Brom and Championship side Ipswich made enquires for the 26-year-old.

Fortune has attracted the interest of a host of clubs following an impressive season with Nancy.

The former Lille and Utrecht hit-man has been instrumental in Nancy's surprise bid to qualify for next season's Uefa Champions League.

West Brom are keen to bolster their squad ahead of next season back in the Premier League and have watched Fortune in action on several occasions this season.

Ipswich are looking to bolster their attacking options and they saw Fortune as a key addition to their squad as they battle for promotion next season.

However, Fortune has rebuffered their overtures and looks to stay at Nancy with the prospect of Champions League football to look forward to next season.
