Report: West Bromwich Albion keen on Benfica defender Jardel

Experienced Benfica defender Jardel is said to be on the radar of Premier League outfit West Bromwich Albion.

West Bromwich Albion have been linked with a move for Benfica defender Jardel.

The 31-year-old joined the Portuguese giants from Desportivo Brasil in 2011 and has made 175 appearances for them in all competitions.

However, he has lost his first-team place at the Estadio da Luz due to injury and has only played eight times this season.

According to the Birmingham Mail, the Brazilian centre-half is still on Tony Pulis's radar, despite the Baggies boss seeing an initial offer rejected.

West Brom will be down to just four senior defenders - Craig Dawson, Gareth McAuley, Jonny Evans and Allan Nyom - once Marc Wilson's loan spell at The Hawthorns comes to an end.
