West Bromwich Albion’s Ahmed Hegazi in fitness race ahead of Everton clash

West Bromwich Albion manager Alan Pardew disclosed that Ahmed Hegazi remains a doubt for their Premier League fixture against Everton.

The Egypt international who has played in every of the Baggies’ league games so far this campaign suffered a head injury in their 2-0 win over Brighton and Hove Albion last Saturday.

Hegazi collided with teammate Craig Dawson in the final 15 minutes of the encounter.

And his manager is hopeful that the 26-year-old who signed a four-and-a-half-year deal with the Hawthorns outfit from Al Ahly in December will be fit for the encounter at Merseyside.
