Mel will meet chairman Jeremy Peace at the end of the season to discuss his own uncertain Hawthorns future – but is already looking ahead to revamping the squad.

Saturday's 1-0 win against West Ham means Albion's top-flight safety could be confirmed at the weekend but a huge summer awaits with a host of players potentially on their way out.

Mel said: "There are a lot of players who are going to be out of contract so it's very much a case of creating a new team.

"The make-up of this team will be very important. That will define the future.
