Hammers pushing for £40m double deal for Allen and Butland

West Ham will try to sign both Jack Butland and Joe Allen from Stoke City if the Potters are relegated this season.

The Daily Mail, as cited by Sky Sports, claims that the Hammers are interested in a double swoop.

Allen has been linked with a move to the London Stadium for some time, with David Moyes expressing an interest in the Welshman in January.

With Joe Hart’s future at the club still undecided a goalkeeper is likely to be high on the club’s wish list this summer.

Both Butland and Allen are likely to be two of Stoke’s most in-demand players if Paul Lambert is unable to steer them away from the drop.

Butland himself has been linked with big money moves this season. Both Arsenal and Chelsea are thought to be interested in the player.

Stoke are currently five points from safety in the Premier League with just four games left to play this season.
