Joel Ward linked with Championship move

Crystal Palace defender Joel Ward has emerged as a transfer target for Championship side West Brom.

As per a report from Birmingham Live, as cited on Hull Live, Ward is a target for the Baggies.

Chelsea’s Ola Aina was heavily linked with a move to the Hawthorns, but now looks set to join Italian side Torino after rejecting interest from England.

Aaron Wan-Bassaka appears to have made the right-back slot his own at Crystal Palace, casting doubts over the amount of game time Ward will get at Selhurst Park this season.

Ward has been linked with moves away from Palace for some time and was touted as a possible target for West Brom last season.

At West Brom there are concerns over the long-term future of Craig Dawson, leaving the Baggies in the market for a new right-back.

Palace may be keen to keep hold of him, with the transfer window now closed, leaving them unable to replace the player.
