The £14 million rated midfielder is a transfer target for Hammers boss David Moyes this summer according to Sky Sports and The Sunday Mirror (May 23rd, page 74).

The Athletic actually claimed that the midfielder could be signed for just £12 million this summer.

Kral would be a sensational addition for West Ham.

The problem for the Hammers is that four other Premier League clubs want to sign him as well (Sky Sports).

West Ham should have a huge advantage.

Hammers ace Coufal is represented by K2K Sports Entertainment Group – the same agency that looks after Kral.

Having seen the 28-year-old right-back achieve so much success during his debut campaign in the Premier League, Kral’s agents will surely push him toward a move to the London Stadium.

There is also the small matter of another one of his Czech Republic teammates already being at West Ham in the form of Tomas Soucek.

It seems as though it’s written in the stars for Kral to join the Hammers this summer.
