Evans, who played 198 times for Manchester United before joining Albion in 2015, has two years left on his deal at The Hawthorns, where he is captain.
West Brom have turned down a £10m bid from Leicester for the 29-year-old.
Evans joined United as a schoolboy before going on to win three Premier League titles and two League Cups.
He joined West Brom in 2015 after being told he did not figure in former United manager Louis van Gaal’s plans.
