Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.West Bromwich Albion could break their club transfer record to sign Salomon Rondon from Zenit St Petersburg.
The Venezuelan striker had been a target for Liverpool earlier this summer, before the Reds agreed a move for Christian Benteke.
The 25-year-old has 28 goals in 57 matches for Zenit since joining the club from Rubin Kazan in 2014.
West Brom boss Tony Pulis has already brought in Rickie Lambert to bolster his options, with last season's top scorer Saido Berahino still linked with a move away from The Hawthorns.
Brown Ideye, bought for a record £10m, could be allowed to leave after scoring just seven goals in 30 matches in all competitions last season; he could be available for around £6m.
Rondon is a quick, physical presence who stands 6ft 3in, he also has 13 international goals in 39 caps.
