Hammers considering Bentley swoop?

West Ham United are reportedly mulling a move for Southend United keeper Daniel Bentley.

The 21-year-old shot-stopper saved two penalties against Wycombe Wanderers as the Shrimpers edged a penalty shootout 7-6 to win the League Two playoff final on Saturday.

According to the Daily Mail, the Hammers are showing interest in signing Bentley, but they are not alone.

It is thought that Brentford, Burnley, Bournemouth and Wolverhampton Wanderers have all sent scouts to watch the youngster in action.

On Southend's run to the playoffs, Bentley set a club record of 11 consecutive home clean sheets.
