Respected football journalist Nicolo Schira has claimed that the Hammers are in talks to sign the Czech midfielder.

So the transfer could be back on!

Sky Sports and The Express had claimed over the past few weeks that West Ham boss David Moyes was closing in on a deal to bring the 23-year-old to the London Stadium.

ExWHUemployee suggested a couple of days ago, however, that our interest in Kral had cooled.

Alex Kral to West Ham back on?

Nicolo Schira claims West Ham’s deal to sign Kral could be back on now, with a five-year deal readied for the Czech Republic international:

Hammers fans will be well aware of Schira’s credibility.

The Italian journalist famously broke the news of Sebastien Haller’s switch to the London Stadium from Eintracht Frankfurt two years ago.

Let’s hope he’s right again this time concerning Kral!

The 23-year-old would be a truly sensational addition for West Ham.

In 29 league outings for Spartak Moscow this season, the Czech Republic international has registered five assists and has averaged 1.5 tackles, 1.8 interceptions, 0.8 clearances and 0.8 dribbles per game. During those appearances, he has made 56 passes per match on average with a completion rate of 81% (Who Scored).

The Czech Republic international began his career as a defender but he has evolved into a midfielder. He is apt at playing the holding role but he can perform central midfield box-to-box duties with aplomb as well.
