Leicester close to Evans deal

As reported by 'BBC Sport', Evans is on the brink of making the move from West Brom to Leicester, and has agreed terms with the midlands club. 

Although Claude Puel had been rumoured to be on the brink of losing his job towards the end of the season, it now seems that he is set to stay, and the Frenchman has been a fan of Evans for a while. 

The defender, who is the captain of West Brom, has been with the 'Baggies' for three years, but when they were relegated from the Premier League this season it was widely accepted that the Northern Irishman would move elsewhere.

The English outlet claim that Leicester will pay a fee of £3.5m to West Brom, payable in two £1.75m instalments.
