West Ham United FC transfer news: Hammers see approach rejected for Serie A star Milan Badelj

Fiorentina contract rebel Milan Badelj has rejected approaches from West Ham and Aston Villa.

The Croatian’s deal is set to expire at the end of June and he will be free to join another club in July.

Both the Hammers and the Villans have been made aware of the midfielder’s situation and they made an offer to him.

But, according to Tutto Mercato, Badelj has snubbed the chance to join either of the English sides.

Instead the 29-year-old is still hopeful an agreement can eventually be found with Fiorentina.

Badelj would like to stay at the Italian club, but at present the two cannot agree over a wage packet.
