West Bromwich Albion are being linked with a last minute move for out of favour Everton right-back Cuco Martina.

The former Southampton man spent time on loan at Stoke City and Feyenoord last season and is available to leave the Premier League side on loan or permanently today.

Football Insider say Albion are keen as they look to strengthen their promotion push.

Meanwhile, the Liverpool Echo say a move abroad looks more likely with transfer windows often open for longer in other countries, such asĀ  Portugal, Russia and China.

That could lead to Martina deciding he will not be rushed, with Albion having to complete deals by 11pm tonight.

The 30-year-old is out of contract in the summer and will leave Everton on a free transfer at the end of June.

He signed a three-year deal after being released by Southampton in 2017. Martina was born in the Netherlands but plays his international football for Curacao.
