According to Fabrizio Romano, West Ham United and Wolves have begun negotiations about the transfer of defender Max Kilman.
The trustworthy journalist claims that Julen Lopetegui is a huge fan of his former player and wants to bring him to the London Stadium in a post on his personal X account on June 18.
Although a sale is not anticipated to be simple, the Hammers are investigating their options and have initiated discussions with potential suitors.
West Ham United want to sign Wolves captain Max Kilman
During the summer transfer window, West Ham has to prioritise strengthening their central defence, and Lopetegui is well-versed in Kilman’s abilities.
He was really the manager of the team when Kilman took over as Wolves’ captain, garnering praise and being considered for a call-up to the senio England team.
Kurt Zouma has apparently been given permission to quit the club; Nayef Aguerd’s [Hakim Zhouri, May 11] future is also uncertain, while Angelo Ogbonna has already departed.
After becoming a free agent, World Cup winner Mats Hummels [HITC, June 17] has been the subject of rumours about interest; nevertheless, Kilman appears to be a more feasible target, despite the fact that he will probably cost a lot of money.
Napoli made proposals on him last summer, but Wolves won’t let him go lightly even though they must sell for PSR reasons. He is a vital player. Watch this one carefully in the upcoming weeks.
