Albion are making progress with their bid to complete the £10 million capture of Ghana striker Raphael Dwamena from FC Zurich.

The 21-year-old arrived last night ahead of a medical and the all-important work permit hearing, which takes place tomorrow.

The process has not been complicated by Dwamena's call-up for Ghana for their forthcoming World Cup qualifying double-header against Congo.

He scored twice on his debut for his country against Ethiopia in June.

Tomer Hemed is likely to leave Albion before the transfer window closes at the end of the month if the deal for Dwamena goes through.

Four Championship clubs, including Reading, are interested in signing the Israeli target man.
