Hodgson ponders Hargreaves deal

Last updated : 11 July 2011 By Wba-mad Editor

Roy Hodgson is set to decide whether to give Owen Hargreaves a return to Premier League football.

Albion are reportedly interested in signing the former Manchester United and England international on a pay-as-you-play contract after his release from Old Trafford.

A deal would be attractive for both parties with Hargreaves looking for a new club and Hodgson still searching for a defensive midfielder after the club decided against signing David Vaughan.

Hargreaves has had an injury-plagued spell in England since joining the Red Devils for £17 million in 2007 from Bayern Munich. He played only 39 times for United, but still helped them win the Champions League in 2008.
