West Brom have turned down yet another big-money bid for club captain, Jonny Evans.

Just three days before the transfer deadline, Leicester have apparently offered up to £23m for the Northern Ireland defender.

It is the fourth bid rejected by the Baggies.

In recent weeks Man city have come in with two offers, one worth £18m.

And earlier in the summer, Leicester offered £10m for the much sought-after 29-year-old.

Evans is currently injured and missed his side’s 1-1 draw with Stoke yesterday.

In his programme notes he wrote how he was “committed” to Albion and that speculation was out of his control
