West Ham reportedly plotting £20million swoop for Championship star

Olympic Stadium

According to reports, West Ham are considering an approach for Sunderland midfielder Didier Ndong with the Black Cats demanding a fee in the region of £20 million.

Ndong is one of the most talented players in the Black Cats side has long been linked with a move away from the club following its relegation from the Premier League last season.

The Hammers midfield meanwhile has so far been below par this season as the club has experienced successive Premier League losses against Manchester United and Southampton.

The addition of Ndong could certainly help improve the overall quality of Slaven Bilic’s side.

Following the poor start to this season, there is also a strong chance that Bilic will be looking to make additions to his side before the end of the current transfer window and there is thus a good chance that the Hammers may make moves to sign Ndong.
