CRAIG NEAR TO EXIT DAW

CRAIG DAWSON has slapped in a transfer request at West Brom.

Defender Dawson, 28, and keeper Ben Foster both refused to go on the club’s training camp to Portugal last week. Foster is set to join Watford while Dawson (above) is wanted by Burnley and West Ham.

The Clarets have offered £12million but Baggies won’t want another centre-half to leave after seeing Jonny Evans and Gareth McAuley go.
