West Ham reportedly battling Leicester to sign Belgian international

Acording to reports, West Ham as well as Leicester City are interested in signing Borussia Monchengladbach star Thorgan Hazard.

The 24-year-old brother of Chelsea star, Eden Hazard, enjoyed an impressive past season in the Bundesliga and scored six goals while contributing four assists from 23 appearances.

The interest of Leicester and the Hammers in signing the Belgian international is said to have become stronger following his performances from this past season.

Hammers manager Slaven Bilic is looking to bolster his squad following what has been a disappointing season and there is no doubt that the addition of Hazard will add much needed firepower to the side.

The player also has just two years remaining on his current deal with Gladbach and now will be the right time to sell should the club wish to gain maximum profit.
