The 28-year-old joined the Baggies on a season-long loan last summer, with Albion boss Roy Hodgson keen to secure the England international on a permanent deal in the summer.
According to The Mirror, however, Birmingham are refusing to sell to their rivals and want Foster to return at the end of the season.
Foster has made 27 appearances for West Brom this season.
