Southampton are reportedly keen on signing the Celtic ace, but West Ham United could steal march on their Premier League rivals.
West Ham boss David Moyes has a lot of work to do at the London Stadium this summer, if he is to build a group of players who are capable of challenging for the Europa League places next season.
One particular area where the Scot will want to improve is his attacking midfield department, and he should consider a move for Celtic ace Tom Rogic, who has been linked with a move to Southampton, according to the Daily Record.
The Australia international has been in wonderful form for Brendan Rodgers’ side this season, chipping in with eight goals and eight assists in 37 appearances in all competitions thus far.
Rogic’s eye for a goal from midfield would be a major bonus for the Hammers, with a lack of goals from the middle of the park proving to be a real concern for them.
Whilst West Ham will not have a clear run for the 25-year-old ace, they could have an ace up their sleeve.
The east London outfit could steal a march on their rivals in the race for the Celtic man’s signature by offering the Glasgow giants Robert Snodgrass in exchange.
The Scotland international is a boyhood Hoops fan, according to the Scottish Sun, and with his future at the London Stadium looking bleak, a swap deal involving him and Rogic seems like a no-brainer.
The two players have similar valuations, and it seems as though a swap deal would be a fairly simple one to execute.
Both players have qualities that the two respective clubs need, and if a deal involving the two does got through, it could turn out to be an extremely significant piece of business for both sides.
