Irons linked with Torino defender

|

West Ham are reportedly interested in a January move for Torino defender Nikola Maksimovic.

The 24 year old Serbian centre-back is said to be available for around £12m and is also a target for Spurs apparently.

However, with the club well placed or central defenders this does seem fanciful at a time when a right back is likely to be the central target.

There’s the added issue of the 24 year old having been injured since the start of September and further alleged interest from Chelsea and Liverpool.
