West Ham are looking for a very high fee if they sell their centre-back Issa Diop, who has been targeted by Manchester United this summer.
According to reports from France Football, as cited by Inside Futbol, the Hammers are looking for a bid worth around €84 million, as they aim to take a fee close to the £75 million Liverpool spent to make Virgil van Dijk the world’s most expensive ever defender in 2018.
United’s latest bid was reportedly around €50 million and included a player in the deal, believed to have been either Matteo Darmian or Marcos Rojo. However, West Ham were unimpressed with the offer and rejected it.
Despite their original asking price seemingly set, they are willing to lower their valuation to €65 million, as per France Football.
Diop is evidently not for sale, as such, but if Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants to recruit the towering central defender for his side, it seems the fee to cough up has been stated.
