West Brom, Arsenal agree Kieran Gibbs deal after Watford back out - sources

Arsenal have agreed a fee with West Brom for the transfer of Kieran Gibbs after the defender's move to Watford fell apart, sources confirmed to ESPN FC.

Watford and Arsenal had agreed a £5 million fee over Gibbs last Friday, sources said, but the Hornets could not agree personal terms and have now ended their interest in the 27-year-old.

West Brom have now come on for Gibbs and he is set to have a medical in the next 24 hours.

Arsenal are willing to let Gibbs move on as he is well down the pecking order in Arsene Wenger's plans.
