West Ham have been linked with the La Liga defender Guillermo Maripan for a while now.
According to a report from Diario OK (translated by Sportwitness), the Hammers have now submitted a €15m (£13.5) offer for the player.
Maripan has a €25m release clause and it will be interesting to see whether Alaves are willing to accept Hammers’ offer for him.
West Ham need to add more depth and quality to their back four and Maripan could prove to be a solid addition.
He might be tempted to move to the Premier League as well.
