Sandro joins West Bromwich Albion on loan

West Bromwich Albion have confirmed the capture of Queens Park Rangers midfielder Sandro on a loan deal until the end of the season.

The 26-year-old Brazilian, who previously spent four years with Tottenham Hotspur, will wear the number 30 shirt at the Hawthorns.

"I spoke to the manager and was impressed," Sandro told the club's official website. "This is a big club and I feel happy to be here and very happy to be back in the Premier League.

"As a player I play with my heart, I give all I can on the pitch - all the time I want to win the ball and play the ball. I hope the fans will see the best of me during my time."

Baggies boss Tony Pulis added: "We're delighted to bring such a quality player to the club. We've got a few injuries and knocks at the moment so we're pleased to be able to strengthen the squad.

"Sandro has a great pedigree and will be a good addition to our squad."

West Brom have an option to make the deal permanent at the end of the season.
