West Ham have re-initiated contacts with Marseille defender Duje Ćaleta-Car according to sources quoted by Get French Football News.
Although negotiations with the centre-back are underway, the Irons are yet to start talks with his club.
The 24-year-old Croatia international has been with the Ligue 1 side for the last three seasons, after initially arriving from Salzburg, and notably appeared in his country’s runner-up finish at the 2018 World Cup.
Kurt Zouma appears to be ready to stay at Chelsea and sign a new contract while Nikola Milenkovic looks like he could be making a move to Juventus.
Sportklub in Croatia reported earlier this week that Spurs had ‘already agreed everything’ with Caleta-Car ahead of a move to North London.
A fee of around €24million (£20.5million) is stated, with confidence in his homeland that a move to Tottenham is on the cards.
David Moyes is desperate to add a centre back to his squad after Fabian Balbuena departed following the end of his contract with West Ham.
I am not sure at all on this guy – I hope this is not a money driven buy or panic buy. The first thing about a defender is to ensure he is a good defender and there are far better defenders out there than this guy. We need to start negotiating properly for players and and become more open to meeting the selling clubs valuations or else we are going nowhere.
I think we desperately need a striker . All this talk and speculation around a central defender is getting a bit silly . We have a decent defence already but what we miss is a out & out goal scorer . Better to be 2 nil up than defending a 1 1 draw .
