West Ham join Aston Villa and Norwich in race to sign Wolves star Sanderson

West Ham have entered the race to sign Wolves youngster Dion Sanderson, according to the Daily Mail.

The 20-year-old is currently on loan at Cardiff City, but could leave Wolves permanently this summer.

Aston Villa and Norwich are also believed to be in the mix to buy Sanderson.

Wolves are contemplating selling him at the end of the season, with playing time likely to be hard to come by at Molineux.

It is always good to be planning for the future, so it is encouraging to see West Ham linked with Sanderson.

The Hammers could have a squad overhaul this summer, and starting from scratch could be the way to go, perhaps depending on whether or not Premier League survival is secured.

Sanderson has been playing at right-back this season and he could be seen as a replacement for Pablo Zabaleta in that position, who is now 35 years of age.

It may be that Sanderson could have to bide his time before playing in his favourite central berth, but simply earning playing time at a club of West Ham’s size could be priceless experience.
