Middlesbrough submit £5m bid for Randolph

With West Ham set to welcome England No.1 Joe Hart to the club on loan from Manchester City in the near future, both Adrian and Darren Randolph will be wondering what their next steps are.

The pair split time between the sticks last season, but both were prone to mistakes and neither were able to establish themselves as the starter, thus forcing the club to move for a quality goalkeeper.

While Adrian has been linked with Crystal Palace in the last 24 hours, there seems to be considerably more interest in his backup Darren Randolph., with Middlesbrough reportedly submitting a £5m bid for the player. The Hammers are considering the offer and are yet to respond as they await the conclusion of the Joe Hart transfer.

Newcastle are also said to be interested in signing the former Birmingham and Charlton goalkeeper who joined West Ham on a free transfer in the summer of 2015.

Randolph is a talented ‘keeper but is not consistent enough to nail down the No.1 jersey at the London Stadium.

Should Hart arrive, West Ham will allow one of Randolph or Adrian to leave the club this summer and it’ll likely come down to which deal makes the most sense financially for the Hammers.
