Bednar to join WBA

Roman Bednar will be joining West Bromwich Albion in the summer for a fee of around £2.5 million. The player is temporarily on loan from Hearts, and WBA are keen to make the deal permanent after securing Premiership status.

"West Brom really want Roman and we have been told they will exercise the option," agent Viktor Kolar told The Scotsman. "Roman is very happy there and we are just putting in place his contract conditions.

“We want him to have a contract as a Premier League player and that is what we are discussing. It is a great opportunity for him to play at the top level in England, one of the best leagues in the world."
