We understand Arsenal are interested in signing Jonny Evans from West Brom.
Sources have told us an enquiry has been made. However, sources close to Albion have told us they are unaware of any contact from Arsenal, who have not made a formal offer at this stage.
Evans, along with his Northern Ireland team mates, have been training at Manchester City's training centre this week before they fly to San Marino on Deadline Day. Michael O'Neill told Sky Sports News last week that he wouldn't stand in the way of Evans should he need to leave the camp to deal with transfer business. Naturally there's a willingness from NI to resolve it before the flight on Thursday, and one source has told us that the matter of his future could gather pace in the next 24 hours.
As we've been reporting in the last week or so, we're expecting City to return with an improved bid but will it meet West Brom's valuation?
