Claudio Yacob commits future to West Brom by signing new 2-year deal

It looks like 85 appearances at West Bromwich Albion weren't enough for Claudio Yacob.

West Brom announced Friday that the 27-year-old midfielder put pen to paper on a new two-year deal that will keep him at The Hawthorns until the summer of 2017.

Yacob emerged as a key figure in West Brom's midfield last season, featuring alongside captain Darren Fletcher and providing the club with a solid presence in front of its backline.
