# Lambert provides update on Butland’s asking price as Stoke exit looms

West Ham, Wolves and Liverpool have all been told that £35 million would only be enough for just one of Jack Butland’s gloves this summer.

According to a report from the [Birmingham Mail](https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/wolves-transfer-news-jack-butland-14610971), Lambert has joked that Butland will cost much more than the reported £35 million this summer.

Butland is widely expected to leave Stoke after their relegation to the Championship was confirmed on Saturday afternoon.

The England international has been heavily linked with a move to Liverpool and West Ham, while Championship winners Wolves have also been linked with the player.

West Ham have been long-term admirers of Butland and could look to pounce on the uncertainty surrounding his future.

It is yet to be seen whether or not the Hammers will pursue a permanent deal for Joe Hart this summer.

David Moyes has rotated between both Hart and Adrian this season, but neither goalkeeper’s long-term future at the club is unclear.
