West Ham are still considered favourites to snap up Nottingham Forest central defender Joe Worrall.

Burnley boss Sean Dyche has been very much in the frame for the player but according to local paper Lancs Live will bow out gracefully should the Hammers move in with a firm bid.

Dyche has James Tarkowski in his squad and has signed two other central defenders in Nathan Collins from Stoke City and Jacob Bedeau on a free transfer.

He is now believed to be concerned with strengthening at the other end of the pitch leaving the Hammers a run at the £10mmillion rated Worrall who is reported to be a real David Moyes type.

He is a strong tackler, hugely powerful and always ready to put his head in where it hurts according to those who have watched him regularly.

Moyes is known to have made the central defensive position a priority and the 24 year old 6ft 4in central defender is very much on his wanted list although Brentford are also interested.
