West Brom have strengthened their defensive options with the signing of Egypt international Ahmed Hegazi.
Albion have been tracking the 26-year-old centre-half since his performances caught their eye during the African Nations Cup at the start of the year.
Hegazi has moved to the Hawthorns on a year-long loan but West Brom have the option to make it a permanent deal.
"We're pleased he's here, he's a good addition. He's got good pedigree and has played for some good clubs. Hopefully he'll be a good signing for us," Baggies boss Tony Pulis told the club's official website.
