Transfer News

West Brom bring in Sinclair.

West Brom have signed winger Scott Sinclair on a season-long loan with a view to a permanent move.
The 24-year-old struggled for playing time at the Etihad Stadium after joining City from Swansea last summer.
He played in only 11 Premier League games under Roberto Mancini last season and was not involved on the opening day of 2013-14.
Sinclair is also well known to Albion boss Steve Clarke, who watched his progress through the ranks at Chelsea.
"Scott understands he needs to play football and it will be good to work with him again," Clarke told the club's official website.
"We're delighted he feels this is the right club for him at this stage of his career. He is the type of player we were missing from the squad.
"He is a pure winger, who is quick, direct and scores goals - he has proven that over his career. He can play off the right or left and improves our attacking options.

Chelsea join race for Willian.

Chelsea are in advanced talks to sign Tottenham target Willian from Anzhi Makhachkala, according to Sky sources.
The Stamford Bridge club have made their move after London rivals Tottenham held talks with Willian earlier on Thursday.
Spurs were ready to splash £30m on the midfielder, who has been offered a five-year contract at White Hart Lane.
But the 25-year-old, who was also linked with Liverpool earlier in the summer, appears to be keeping his options open.
Chelsea have already been busy in the summer transfer window with forward Andre Schurrle arriving from Bayer Leverkusen for £18m.
The Blues also splashed around £8m on Marco van Ginkel from Vitesse Arnhem, and £3m on fellow midfielder Cristian Cuevas.
Spurs boss Andre Villas-Boas says he knows nothing of Chelsea's apparent interest.
Speaking after Spurs' 5-0 win at Dinamo Tbilisi in the Europa League qualifying tie, Villas-Boas said: "We were just involved in a game so unfortunately I can't give you further information.
