West Ham United 'on verge of landing Harold Moukoudi'

West Ham United are on the verge of adding Le Havre defender Harold Moukoudi to their squad, according to a report.

The Hammers, who have already recruited seven new players since the end of last season, were tipped to make an offer for the 20-year-old earlier this week.

Sky Sports News claims that United have moved fast for the highly-rated youngster, who has also previously been linked with Burnley, Crystal Palace, Brighton & Hove Albion and Derby County.

A fee in the region of £10m is thought to have been agreed, with Moukoudi joining fellow Frenchman Issa Diop at the London Stadium.

Moukoudi has been capped four times by France at Under-20s level, while also boasting 44 league appearances for second tier Le Havre.
