Hammers boss David Moyes will be very keen to bolster his central midfield ranks at the London Stadium before the start of next season.
Alex Kral is a name who has been persistently linked with West Ham since January.
Sky Sports recently claimed that West Ham have made contact with the 23-year-old’s agent already regarding a potential £14 million summer transfer.
The Express then delivered further good news for Hammers fans by suggesting that the Czech Republic international is in fact keen to join the East London outfit.
And what an incredible signing the Spartak Moscow ace would be for us.
West Ham closing in on Alex Kral?
ExWHUemployee claims that the Hammers want to wrap up a deal to sign the midfielder before the Euros start.
The insider claims that personal terms have been agreed between the player and the club and West Ham will now try to complete the deal.
Kral would be a big statement signing for the Hammers.
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.
