Matty Phillips: West Brom forward signs new deal as Matheus Pereira nears exit

West Bromwich Albion forward Matty Phillips has signed a new three-year contract with the Championship side.

The Scotland international, 30, is the Baggies' longest-serving player, scoring 23 goals in 172 games since joining from QPR for £5.5m in 2016.

Meanwhile, midfielder Matheus Pereira is close to leaving The Hawthorns to join Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal.

It is understood there are various stages of the deal to be completed but the expectation is it will be done.

Pereira signalled his intention to leave West Brom at the end of the season and responded furiously to manager Valerien Ismael's claim he was not committed to the club.
