Allan in line for Albion move

22 December 2011 11:47

Dundee United midfielder Scott Allan appears set for a move to Barclays Premier League side West Brom in January.

United manager Peter Houston refused to discuss the futures of individual players on Thursday, preferring to focus on Saturday's Clydesdale Bank Premier League clash with Hibernian.

But Houston hinted Allan's preference is for a switch to Albion, who last week agreed a fee believed to be in the region of £400,000 for the 20-year-old, who is out of contract at Tannadice at the end of the season.

Allan, who has also been linked with Rangers and Celtic, has made just seven appearances for United, but has featured in the first team since October.
