West Bromwich Albion line up Alan Hutton move?

West Bromwich Albion are reportedly interested in signing Aston Villa defender Alan Hutton.

The 29-year-old has fallen out of favour at Villa Park since Paul Lambert took over as manager in 2012.

Hutton, who has one year remaining on his current deal, has been loaned out to Nottingham Forest, Bolton Wanderers and Real Mallorca in recent seasons.

According to the Birmingham Mail, West Brom are keen to take the Scotland international to The Hawthorns.

The Baggies are also reportedly close to signing former Fulham full-back Chris Baird.
