A CBS journalist has shared an exciting update on a West Ham move for Wolves star Max Kilman in the January window.

West Ham have been heavily linked with Wolves skipper Max Kilman having offloaded Thilo Kehrer and with talk Nayef Aguerd could follow.

It is one of a number of deals being touted between West Ham and Wolverhampton Wanderers in the January transfer window.

Given brilliant Kilman is Wolves’ captain and talisman, it is also perhaps the most unlikely.

CBS journalist’s exciting update on West Ham move for Kilman

Wolverhampton boss and former Hammers midfielder Gary O’Neil gave his old club huge encouragement when he admitted he must sell to buy this month.

But two Telegraph journalists claimed Wolves do not anticipate Kilman being one of them.

There’s been an intriguing development, though, it seems.

Because a CBS journalist has shared an exciting update on a West Ham move for Wolves star Kilman.

Ben Jacobs was the first to break news of the possibility of Declan Rice joining Arsenal – long before they were on the radar.

So West Ham fans will be enthused by his claim about a move for Wolves ace Kilman as he says the transfer is ‘one to watch’.

‘One to watch’

“Max Kilman one to watch for West Ham despite only signing a new five-year deal last summer,” Jacobs said.

“It would take close to £45m. No movement unless Nayef Aguerd departs.

“Spurs had also looked at Kilman in the build up to last summer as one option prior to him extending at Wolves.”

West Ham are looking to clear squad space for arrivals and to satisfy FFP rules with the club having hit the limit on wages-to-turnover.

Other players such as alleged Wolves targets Said Benrahma and Danny Ings as well as Aguerd and Pablo Fornals could be shipped out of West Ham.

The Hammers must also look to bring in players who fit the category of homegrown, which Kilman does.
