Manchester City have reportedly ended their interest in West Bromwich Albion centre-back Jonny Evans.
Evans has recently been made skipper of West Brom after Darren Fletcher left The Hawthorns for Stoke City.
The Northern Ireland international moved to the Baggies from Manchester United in the summer of 2015, and has scored three times in 65 appearances over the last two seasons.
Arsenal, Leicester City and Man City have been strongly linked with moves for the 29-year-old over the last 24 hours, but according to Sky Sports News, Evans now looks likely to stay put at The Hawthorns until at least the January transfer window.
As a result, City are expected to keep hold of France international Eliaquim Mangala, despite interest from Crystal Palace.
Evans has travelled with the Northern Ireland squad to San Marino for their 2018 World Cup qualifier on Friday night.
