Details as Leicester make 'super' Harry Souttar transfer demands with West Ham United keen

Harry Souttar continues to be linked with a move from Leicester City to West Ham United.

The 27-year-old is coming off the back of a World Cup campaign with Australia in North America.

He featured across every possible minute at the summer tournament before his nation were knocked out by Egypt.

The centre-back has now returned to work with the Foxes and featured in a pre-season friendly against Malaga on Saturday.

That is all while his future hangs in the balance at the King Power after relegation to League One.

West Ham are interested in Souttar as they now learn how much they would have to pay for his signature.

Leicester City set asking price for Harry Souttar

The Hammers are yet to introduce any fresh faces to their squad at this stage of the summer.

Nuno Espirito Santo must be growing frustrated, but there has been no shortage of links to new stars.

It looks as if defensive reinforcements are on the agenda and the Foxes man could soon contribute to that.

Alan Nixon reported via Patreon on Sunday that West Ham are keen on who he describes as "super" Souttar.

The Irons are looking to agree an initial loan deal after Leicester set a £10million asking price for the defender.

That has put off other interested parties like Sheffield United and Stoke City, while the claret and blue seemingly remain in the race.
