Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing Issa Diop from West Ham United.
It has been reported that Manchester United are interested in singing Diop from Premier League rivals West Ham in the summer transfer window.
The Red Devils are willing to offer £45 million as transfer fee for the 22-year-old central defender plus a player, according to the report.
Sky Sports have claimed that representatives of the defender and West Ham will hold talks over the player’s future next week.
West Ham United stay
Diop joined West Ham from Toulouse in the summer of 2018 for a transfer fee reported by Sky Sports to be worth £22 million.
The centre-back – who earns £67,000 per week as salary, according to Spotrac.com – has been superb for the Hammers, and there is no surprise that United reportedly want him.
For the Hammers to progress as a team and to stand a chance of challenging for the top six, they need to keep hold of Diop beyond the summer transfer window and must fend off all advances of the Red Devils.
