West Ham have been trying to add to their midfield for a while now.
The Hammers have been linked with the Sporting midfielder William Carvalho. Apparently, the two clubs have been in talks regarding a transfer.
According to Independent, Sporting are demanding £36.5m for the Euro 2016 winner and West Ham are not ready to spend that kind of money on the defensive midfielder.
West Ham were ready to break their transfer record for the Portuguese international but it seems that Sporting’s demands could scupper the move.
If things do not change soon, the Hammers will turn their attentions towards the Sunderland midfielder Didier Ndong.
