West Ham have entered the race to sign Jannik Vestergaard from Borussia Monchengladbach, rivalling Southampton and Everton for the player.
According to Sky Sports, the Hammers are interested in a deal, but Southampton appear to be leading the race to sign the player.
The Saints have reportedly held initial talks over a summer move, with Mark Hughes looking for defensive reinforcements.
Vestergaard impressed for Gladbach last season, with his performances prompting Premier League sides to take notice.
The 25-year-old was ever present for Gladbach in the Bundesliga last season, helping the club to a ninth-place finish.
Spurs have also been linked with the player in the past but it is unclear as to whether they will reignite their interest this summer.
Manuel Pellegrini has been looking to reshape the Hammers’ backline this summer.
The signings of Ryan Fredericks, Łukasz Fabiański and Issa Diop could see the club start the season with a new-look defence.
