The Everton winger would be a useful addition to the West Bromwich Albion squad this summer.
It will be vital for Baggies boss Tony Pulis to strengthen his squad before the end of this month, or risk further stagnation setting in at the Hawthorns.
One particular area of the West Brom squad that definitely needs improving is the forward department, with the addition of an established winger surely featuring highly on Pulis’ wish-list.
With this in mind, the Black Country outfit should consider entering the race to sign Toffees winger Aaron Lennon, who has been linked with a move to Watford, according to the Mirror.

The 30-year-old’s recent personal problems have been well-documented, but he has returned fitter and healthier than ever, both physically and mentally.
Lennon’s wealth of experience of playing at the very highest level would help him fit in perfectly to the Baggies’ ethos, with the added bonus of his blistering pace and genuine quality certain to provide Pulis’ side with a more potent feel to their attacking setup.
The former Tottenham and Leeds United man’s ability to get in behind the opposition defence could prove to be crucial to West Brom, and their ability to break down their opponents this season.
With someone like Jay Rodriguez in the middle, having someone with Lennon’s ability to deliver crosses with pinpoint accuracy would be a major asset, and would surely help the former Southampton star, what with the added service that the Everton ace would provide.
And if Pulis manages to bring the Toffees winger to the Hawthorns, it could turn out to be the signing that really helps kick West Brom on, a push them into contention for a top seven finish in the table.
