West Brom management insist Jonny Evans not for sale

West Brom management insist Jonny Evans is not for sale.

The Express & Star says Albion are insisting Evans is not for sale amid reports Leicester City are readying a second bid to test their resolve.

The club have already rejected a £10million bid from the Foxes, which was seen as a derisory offer in the corridors of Baggies headquarters.

But Leicester, who signed Harry Maguire from Hull City for £17m towards the end of last week, still want a second centre-half to replace their ageing back line.

The Foxes remain keen on Evans, but sources at Albion say they would only entertain bids north of £25m, and only once another defender was bought.
