West Ham United and Wolverhampton Wanderers are both interested in signing Manchester City defender Nicolas Otamendi this summer, according to Marca.

The 31-year-old has fallen behind Aymeric Laporte, John Stones and Vincent Kompany at the Etihad Stadium, making just 14 Premier League starts this season.

And Marca believes that he is now getting itchy feet as he is worried about his role in the team as well as his chances of a starting place in the Argentina squad.

Otamendi can earn big bucks in China with offers on the table from the Far East, although Marca claims that he will be handed the chance to stay in the Premier League if he so desires.

Wolves’ interest should come as no surprise given that the former Valencia and Porto star is represented by Jorge Mendes, who has a number of clients who are already plying their trade at Molineux.

Current West Ham boss Manuel Pellegrini was the man who brought Otamendi to English football back in 2015, meanwhile, paying £32 million for the combative South American when he was in charge of Manchester City, according to the BBC.
