West Brom have announced the loan signing of Everton defender Mason Holgate until the end of the season, as the Baggies make their first signing ahead of the opening of the transfer window on Tuesday.
Holgate, who has managed just six senior appearances so far this season, will be hoping to aid his new side in securing automatic promotion back to the Premier League at the first time of asking, and offers versatile cover in defence.
“I tried to bring Mason into the squad in the summer but at that stage Everton were not willing to release him," manager Darren Moore told the West Brom website.
