Joleon Lescott signs for Aston Villa from West Bromwich Albion
• Defender agrees two-year deal with Midlands club • Jonny Evans’ arrival closes door on centre-half  Aston Villa have completed the signing of Joleon Lescott from West Bromwich Albion for a reported fee of £1.5m. The defender has signed a two-year deal at Villa Park after spending just over 12 months with the Baggies. Lescott passed a medical on Tuesday and the move ends a long transfer chase for Villa, who wanted to sign him before his move to Albion last summer. Lescott made 39 appearances, scoring once, for West Brom after joining from Manchester City on a free transfer last summer. But the £6m arrival of Jonny Evans from Manchester United last week meant the Baggies were prepared to let the 33-year-old former England international leave. He was behind Gareth McAuley and Jonas Olsson in the pecking order but did start Saturday’s 1-0 Premier League win at Stoke. Lescott won the league twice while at Manchester City, also helping them lift the FA Cup in 2011 and League Cup last year. Villa also completed the signing of the 18-year-old goal keeper Matija Sarkic from Anderlecht.
