West Brom rival West Ham for Wigan fullback Antonee Robinson

West Brom are lining up a move for Wigan Athletic fullback Antonee Robinson.

The Express & Star says the left-back came close to joining Italian giants AC Milan back in January only for the move to collapse at the last minute when a medical picked up an issue with his heart.

Since then Robinson has been undergoing treatment for the issue – with the 22-year-old finally given the all-clear to return to training with Wigan last week.

AC Milan were reportedly ready to pay £10million to sign Robinson earlier this year.

But it is now understood Albion are among the front-runners for his signature if they win promotion to the Premier League.

West Ham have also been linked with a move for the defender.
