West Brom's outcast goalkeeper Brian Jensen has slammed the way he has been treated by Baggies manager Gary Megson and insisted he will quit the club this summer, according to reports in his native Denmark.

Jensen - nicknamed 'The Beast' by Albion fans because of his burly build - was signed by Brian Little three years ago for Stg£100,000 from Dutch side Alkmaar.

He played 40-plus games for Albion but has been only a back-up player since the arrival of Russell Hoult two years ago and then Joe Murphy last summer as the number two.

Jensen's current contract runs out this summer and he is adamant that he will be seeking fresh pastures.

He told the Danish newspaper BT: "This season has been one long slip down the hill, and I don't like to be here anymore.

"Of course I'm angry and unsatisfied because I'm not playing. The manager doesn't treat me like a man but like a puppet - like a little piece he can do with what he wants.

"I'm now third choice but at one time he said 'now you will get a chance' and the week after I was out of the squad again. Then he said I had just been in the squad to punish one of the other goalkeepers

"I know the manager will be upset when he reads these quotes from me. My contract expires this summer and West Bromwich will probably offer me an extension but now I want to leave. I feel cheated."
