West Brom: Jara Reyes and Mattock set to depart as Liam Ridgewell deal nears completion
By Chris Lepkowski
Jan 31 2012
Gonzalo Jara Reyes and Joe Mattock will be granted loan moves to Brighton - as soon as Liam Ridgewell has completed his move to West Brom.
Ridgewell was today in the final throes of completing his move from Birmingham City for an undisclosed fee, which is expected to be in the region of £1.75million.
He is expected to sign a two year deal with a 12 month option.
Once Ridgewell has signed, Mattock will be allowed to move to Brighton, along with Jara Reyes, who returns following a loan spell earlier this season.
Roy Hodgson admitted that Portsmouth's financial problems ruined their hopes of re-signing Mattock.
"I've said all along I would have been happy not to do anything as long as we didn't lose players," said Hodgson.
"If all goes well with Liam then it enables Joe Mattock to go out and play more games.
"We can let Gonzalo Jara Reyes go down to Brighton to play more games and as long as the Liam transfer is completed then Joe will also go.
"But it doesn't have to happen today (due to imminent loan window).
"However I am convinced the Liam deal will go through today and that would allow Joe Mattock to go down there with Gonzalo Jara Reyes and they can both play for Brighton in their next game.
"We had Portsmouth initially in mind with Joe but the situation has changed for them regarding them being able to pay their wages.
"We wouldn't want to send a player somewhere where he can't get paid - that would be harsh."

Maybe I've missed it, but I have yet to see any mention of the transfer window stalwart that is Phil McHunt
