Wolves could be tempted into selling Max Kilman to West Ham United for £30 million this summer.

According to the Athletic, West Ham are keen to sign Max Kilman in the summer transfer window, and Wolves will demand around £30 million for the defender.

The East London outfit have been linked with a move to sign the 26-year-old centre-back before – most recently just last month.

Hammers boss David Moyes desperately needs to bolster his central defensive ranks at the London Stadium this summer.

Craig Dawson was sold in January whilst Angelo Ogbonna is now 35 and has yet to be offered a new deal. Meanwhile, Kurt Zouma seems to miss at least two or three months through injury every single season.

And it seems as though Moyes has someone specific in mind to come into the club this summer…

Wolves could sell Max Kilman to West Ham

The Athletic claim that the 26-year-old is firmly on the Hammers radar, but Wolves won’t sell him to us for a penny less than £30 million.

I actually think that fee would represent good value for the East London club.

I think that the 26-year-old Englishman would be a terrific addition for West Ham. He would be a great long-term replacement for Ogbonna and a more physically robust option for us than the injury prone Zouma.

In 37 Premier League appearances this season, Max Kilman has averaged one tackle, 4.5 clearances and 2.4 successful aerial duels per game (Who Scored).

During those outings, he has made 56.9 passes on average per match and has recorded a completion rate of 83.3% (Who Scored).

Jose Sa once described the 26-year-old as ‘amazing’. Standing at 6ft 4in tall, he is really strong in the air, and is a terrific leader at the back for Wolves.

I think that Max Kilman would be a truly sensational signing for West Ham in the summer transfer window.

Whether or not the Hammers will be prepared to pay £30 million for the defender remains to be seen though.
