The Independent reckon that the Hammers will intensify their interest in the 26-year-old once Declan Rice’s move to Arsenal goes through.

I think that McTominay would be a very good addition for West Ham this summer.

He’s a pretty solid passer of the football and has a knack for scoring goals as well – a real bonus for a defensive midfielder.

I actually think that Scott McTominay could be the perfect summer signing for West Ham – as long as he is not brought in as a direct replacement for Rice.

If Moyes adds the Scot to his ranks as well as someone like Ibrahim Sangare or Sofyan Amrabat then we’ll be in business.

Let’s hope that West Ham manage to get this one done quickly and efficiently this summer.
