Manchester United defender set for Medical; Transfer by Weekend

According to reports from Sky Sports, Manchester United defender Jonny Evans is set to join West Brom after the Baggies have agreed with a fee with the Red Devils for the Northern Ireland international.

The 27 year old had falled down the packing order at Old Trafford under Louis Van Gaal despite United being on the lookout for a centre back who can bring stability to the back four. West Brom had earlier made a move for Tottenham’s Federico Fazio but the player failed to agree a contract to move to The Hawthorns despite long negotiations.
