West Bromwich Albion have secured the services of Welsh International Boaz Myhill on a three year contract. Yesterday Hull City accepted a £1.5 million bid from West Brom for the 27 year old, who made 277 appearances for Hull City since joining them in 2003. Myhill will be a welcomed addition to Albion's squad as they prepare for the Premiership season kick off a fortnight today.

Myhill will be used to provide sturdy cover and competition for current number one and captain Scott Carson.

Baggies gaffer Roberto Di Matteo told the BBC "We've now got two very good international keepers working under our goalkeeping coach Dean Kiely. Competition is vital is all areas of the squad and I'm confident Scott and Boaz will drive each other on."
