Hull City keen to keep Keane Lewis-Potter amid interest from West Ham
Hull City are committed to keep hold of Keane Lewis-Potter amid interest from West Ham, according to Hull Daily Mail.
According to a recent report from The Daily Mail, Lewis-Potter has been tracked by several English clubs including Tottenham and the Hammers.
Brentford made an attempt to sign him in the January transfer window but they failed to secure a move for him.
The report suggests that the club owner Acun Ilicali has made it clear that the young homegrown midfielder won’t be sold even if there’s a big offer, around £20m, from Premier League clubs.
Summer plans
It is not the first time the Hammers have been linked with a move for the youngster.
Back in October, TEAMtalk claimed that the Hammers are plotting to sign the Hull City forward, and that they have been keeping a close tab on him for a while.
The Hammers have previously signed Jarrod Bowen from Hull City, and they could look to raid again. However, it seems, it would take a massive offer to lure him away from the club.
He has been brilliant this season for the Championship club, managing 39 appearances in all competitions, scoring eight goals and registering four assists.
The England U21 international, however, has a contract at the club till 2023, but the club are showing no signs of panic amid interest from Premier League clubs.
Hull City are struggling in the Championship this season, and it remains to be seen how long they can keep hold of their homegrown talent.
