West Ham were linked with a move for Everton midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin back in December.
The Daily Mail have claimed on their live transfer news blog (Monday, 11:22am) that West Ham United are to revive their interest in Everton midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin before Wednesday’s deadline.
The Daily Mirror reported back in December that David Moyes was looking to raid his old side for the 28-year-old, who only moved to Goodison Park from Manchester United in January 2017.
Schneiderlin has been accused of lacking effort in the blue of Everton this season and was forced to publicly deny that he had walked out of training back in November. He was also ridiculously sent off against Lyon that month.
However, he has continued to remain a crucial part of Everton’s side under Sam Allardyce, who boasts an abundance of central midfielders at Goodison Park.
The breakthrough of talented youngsters Tom Davies and Beni Baningime has seen them join a long list of players that include James McCarthy, Idrissa Gueye, Mo Besic and Davy Klaassen.
That strength in depth may tempt Allardyce into selling Schneiderlin, who has a contract with the Merseyside outfit until the summer of 2021 with the Daily Star reporting that he earns £120,000 a week.
West Ham have been after a central midfielder for the entire window, missing out on Joe Allen, Tom Cairney, Jonjo Shelvey and many more, with their sights now centred on France international Schneiderlin.
