Jonny Evans to snub Arsenal in hope of Manchester City move?

West Bromwich Albion defender Jonny Evans has reportedly set his sights on a summer move to Manchester City, despite interest from Arsenal.

The Northern Ireland international was wanted by both clubs in the January transfer window, only for his asking price to prove too steep.

With West Brom destined for the drop in the coming weeks, though, Evans is understood to have a release clause of just £3m inserted in his contract.

According to The Mirror, the centre-back favours a move to Man City over Arsenal as he is still based in the North-West and does not want to relocate.

The same report suggests that Evans has previously turned down wages of £100,000 a week to extend his Albion contract, which is due to expire next year.
