West Brom favourites to sign Leeds fullback Charlie Taylor

West Brom are favourites to sign Leeds United fullback Charlie Taylor.

The Mirror says Taylor is set to join West Brom on a Bosman.

Boss Garry Monk accused Taylor, whose contract expires next month, of refusing to play in their final Championship match of the season against Wigan on Sunday.

Taylor, 23, has wanted out of Elland Road for over a year and it is understood the left-back will sign for Tony Pulis' Baggies. Liverpool, who have used midfielder James Milner at left-back all season, also showed an interest but West Brom believe they have got their man.

Leeds will be entitled to compensation for Taylor, and could demand around £4million for the academy product.
