Hammers edge to front in race for target
The Tigers have now given up their hopes of keeping the attacking midfielder and the Irons have jumped ahead of Burnley in the bid to sign the 29 year old.,
ClaretandHugh was told this afternoon, however, that reports of a £10 million deal should be treated with caution as the club is negotiating a deal which includes add-ons.
These would include appearances clauses and the like which would bring it up to the £10 million currently being reported.
Snodgrass is believed to be keen on a move to the London Stadium ahead of Turf Moor but has to make up his mind on one key issue.
He would be viewed as a squad addition at West Ham rather than an automatic first team starter whilst he would probably become a regular in the Burnley first team.
CandH was told: “The deal is on the table and it’s up to the player to make a decision. We believe we may be slight favourites.”
