Premier League teams Newcastle United and Fulham reportedly want Hamburg defender Vagnoman while Championship outfit Brentford are keen.
Newcastle United, Fulham and Brentford have all made contact with the agent of Hamburg starlet Josha Vagnoman ahead of the summer transfer window, according to Bild.
An 18-year-old full-back who can play on the right or the left, Vagnoman has impressed this season for a Hamburg side who are targeting an immediate return to the Bundesliga after relegation in 2018/19.
They are currently second in the table, a point behind Cologne.
Bild reports that Vagnoman has plenty of admirers in England. Newcastle, who are lacking depth at both full-back positions, are reported to have expressed an interest in the teenager and opened talks with his representatives.
Fulham are also allegedly keen, with the Cottagers seemingly planning for a return to the Championship with relegation looking inevitable.
Brentford are interested, too and, given that the Bees have made a habit of signing little known youngsters like Ollie Watkins, Neal Maupay and Said Benrahma, a move to Griffin Park could make perfect sense.
Bild adds that Vagnoman is valued at around £6.5 million but Hamburg have no interest in selling right now.
“Josha has developed very well. We find him very exciting. He has a contract, we plan with him and we are not ready to talk,” said sporting director Ralf Becker of the defender, who is tied down until 2021.
In July 2018, the Hamburger Morgenpost reported that Newcastle offered £4.6 million for Vagnoman with a wage packet of £30,000 a week. Will they get their man 12 months on?
