Some Leeds United and West Ham United fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to speculation linking the clubs with Arsenal defender Calum Chambers.

According to TEAMtalk, Leeds and West Ham are among the clubs interested in signing Chambers from Premier League rivals Arsenal in the summer transfer window.

Newcastle United and Fulham are also claimed to be interested in the 25-year-old, who can play as a centre-back or as a right-back.

The report has claimed that the Gunners are willing to sell the England international and want £12 million in transfer fees.

The Telegraph has reported that Chambers is a loan option for the Hammers.

Although Leeds signed Robin Koch in the summer transfer window, they could do with another senior and established centre-back who would compete with the Germany international and Liam Cooper, while the Hammers need defensive reinforcements as they have struggled in that department for a while.

However, a report in Football.London in July suggested that Chambers may not return to action until 2021, with the defender having ruptured the anterior cruciate ligament of his left knee in December 2019.

Some Leeds and West Ham fans have given their take on speculation regarding Chambers, and below are some of the best comments on Twitter.
