West Brom transfer news: Josef de Souza deal close as £10.6million fee agreed with Fenerbahce

West Brom have taken a huge step towards completing a deal for Brazilian midfielder Josef de Souza, after agreeing a fee with Fenerbahce.

The Baggies have been hotly tipped to land the 28-year-old after it emerged that Tony Pulis' side had instigated talks with the Turkish giants.

And despite having an earlier offer rejected, it appears West Brom have finally got their man with a fee of £10.6m agreed, according to reports in Turkey.

De Souza does not hold an EU passport and will therefore need to secure a work permit before playing in the Premier League.
