Newcastle United were also in the hunt for his signature, but Southampton are now closing in on the signing of the Stade Brest defender. The deal is at an advanced stage, and the only way the move will fall through is if the player’s medical is unsatisfactory or if another club makes a late attempt to sign him.

Leeds are looking to sign a new left-back, with Ezgjan Alioski’s future in doubt. He is a free agent this summer and is yet to pen a new deal at the club. The Hammers are...
West Ham handed big boost in signing £22.5m star with 159 Premier League appearances
West Ham United have been handed a boost in signing Burnley defender James Tarkowski this summer, Football Insider reports. The England international was on the radar of the Hammers last summer, but the Clarets refused to sanction his sale. The Hammers were willing to pay up to £30 million for the centre-back, but the Clarets were firm on their £50m valuation.

With just 12 months left on his contract, the Clarets are open to selling him. The Hammers could renew their interest in his services. Sportslens view: West Ham failed to land a high-profile centre-back last summer, and they ended up signing Craig Dawson on loan from Watford. The 31-year-old proved a ...

The 23-year-old has been with the Serie A outfit since 2016 and has established himself as the first-choice goalkeeper over the past couple of seasons. He still has two years left on his contract, but reports claim that Fiorentina would be willing to sell him for a fee of around €15 million this summer.

West Ham United have reportedly made a move to sign Argentine forward Giovanni Simeone. According to Tuttomercatoweb, the attacker’s future at Cagliari is in doubt and Torino, Sampdoria, Bologna, Marseille and West Ham are keen on signing him.

The 25-year-old bagged just six goals and two assists in Serie A last term, and the Hammers really need a more prolific forward.
