Ipswich set to sign Furlong from West Brom for £4m

West Bromwich Albion right-back Darnell Furlong is set to join Ipswich Town in a deal worth £4m.

Furlong, 29, has spent the past six years at the Black Country club and started every Championship game this season for the unbeaten Baggies.

The long-throw specialist is Albion's longest-serving player after the retirement of Kyle Bartley.

BBC WM report Ipswich are poised to complete the deal and strengthen a defence already bolstered by the arrival of veteran Ashley Young from Everton on a free transfer in the summer.

Furlong will add to a lengthy list of ex-West Brom players at Portman Road with Alex Palmer, Conor Townsend, Cedric Kipre, Dara O'Shea and David Button also having spent time at The Hawthorns.
