West Ham are holding talks with Villarreal winger Arnaut Danjuma over a potential move this window.
The Dutchman has been under the radar of some of the best teams in Europe after putting on a stellar performance in Europe this season and was strongly linked with Liverpool before.
The player himself admitted previously that he would consider leaving Villarreal if a big move came his way. In an interview with Ziggo Sport, he said: “I was informed that Liverpool was following me closely.
“I have never had contacts with clubs or anything like that during the season – I always know about the situation after the season. I will never lie and I think it’s a bad quality if you are not ambitious. If a club came along that offered me a higher platform to play on sport-wise, I would always have to consider it.”

The 25-year-old, who scored 17 goals last season, has Premier League experience from his time with Bournemouth and the Daily Mail reports that it is for the same reasons that David Moyes wants him at the London Stadium.
