West Ham United are ‘keeping an eye’ on the situation around Club Brugge midfielder Hans Vanaken after showing interest last summer.
That’s according to Voetbal 24, who say Vanaken could be moved on this year after a disappointing campaign.
They say that after his ‘uneven’ performances and a ‘season full of misery’, Vanaken has seen his value reduced from what it was once.
Back in October, Vanaken was valued at around €15m courtesy of a title win with Brugge, a place in the Belgium squad and a season playing in the Champions League.
They had an asking price of €20m but should he move this summer, they will have to ‘settle for less’, and there’s a feeling Vanaken may not even bring in the aforementioned €15m.
That was a price West Ham ‘wanted’ to pay last summer, and they are ‘keeping an eye on the situation’ as they plan for next season.
Vanaken’s future is very much in his hands, and he is ‘key’ to anything happening, although it seems we’re set for a few West Ham rumours in the meantime.
