Palace, Brighton in for Scott Arfield?

West Ham United reportedly face competition to land Burnley midfielder Scott Arfield, as Crystal Palace and Brighton & Hove Albion have joined the race.

The 29-year-old emerged as a possible target for the Hammers earlier this week, as they are on the lookout for central midfield recruits during the January window.

Arfield is now into the final five months of his Turf Moor contract and has yet to agree fresh terms, despite them being offered by the Clarets.

According to Sky Sports News, the Canada international is on the radar of three Premier League clubs, though no formal offers have yet been made.

Separate reports suggest that Arfield was available for as little as £2m due to his contract situation, but fresh interest from elsewhere will likely drive up his valuation.
