West Ham United are ready to push with their efforts to sign James Ward-Prowse as the midfielder looks set to leave relegated Southampton.
According to Football Insider, West Ham United are set to intensify their efforts to sign James Ward-Prowse. The 11-cap English international seems like he could leave relegated Southampton in this window, as he remains eager to continue featuring in the top flight.
West Ham United have a race against time to fulfil their transfer commitments as the new season gets closer. The Hammers have not done any incoming business despite the huge impending sale of Declan Rice to Arsenal. They will have funds once the move progresses and need quality reinforcements in midfield.
Rice was set for his Arsenal medical on Friday as fans wait on an official announcement to arrive. With the money the Hammers will receive, it will be invested in the squad that could see at least two midfielders arrive in this window.
Denis Zakaria is a key target for the Hammers, with the club formulating a loan offer to prise the Juventus midfielder. Furthermore, they have been linked with the likes of Edson Alvarez, who remained in the market after his move to Borussia Dortmund collapsed.
West Ham also held an interest in James Ward-Prowse. The captain of relegated Southampton is eager to continue in the Premier League, with new Saints boss Russell Martin admitting some key stars could leave. That might include 18-year-old Romeo Lavia and the 28-year-old skipper.
Ward-Prowse, an 11-cap English international, will seem eager to keep playing Premier League football to have recognition with national team boss Gareth Southgate. He could accept a move to West Ham if the club offered the right.
The Hammers are set to intensify their efforts to sign the 28-year-old free-kick specialist to strengthen their midfield. Some other clubs could also come into the mix, with Fulham also mentioned as potential suitors. However, with the offer of European football, the Hammers could have a lead in this chase, as they could make a formal offer to Southampton.
The Saints will seek good money in return, although their valuation remains unclear. Ward-Prowse could become a solid addition for David Moyes, who will also hope to bring another player, possibly Zakaria, into his midfield before the window shuts.
