Everton and West Ham join Evans chase

Everton and West Ham United are ready to join the race to sign West Bromwich Albion defender Jonny Evans, according to the Mirror.

The twenty-nine year old was a target for Manchester City in the summer who, despite their superb start to the campaign could again table a bid when the transfer window reopens though they are set for face competition if they do.

Both the Toffees and the Hammers have been shipping goals for fun this season despite the former keeping back-to-back clean sheets in the league.

West Brom are also likely to pull out all the stops to keep their man as they aim to pull away from a relegation battle.

Evans moved to the Hawthorns from Manchester United in the summer of 2015 and has since racked up seventy-eight appearances in all competitions, scoring four goals.

Alan Pardew’s men travel to Swansea City on Saturday afternoon and are priced at 2/1 for the win.
