West Ham enquire about move for Southampton target Kyle Walker-Peters

West Ham have reportedly enquired over a potential deal for Tottenham Hotspurs’ Kyle Walker-Peters according to The Guardian.

The Hammers are on the lookout for a new right-back, as David Moyes looks to add depth to the position with veteran Pablo Zabaleta being forced into a lot of game time thanks to the injury to Ryan Fredericks.

Walker-Peters, who has found game time at a premium this season, has also been a target for Southampton and Crystal Palace, could be allowed to leave on loan, and The Guardian report that West Ham could also be taking an interest.

This follows a failed £12 million bid for Nottingham Forest’s Matty Cash.

Bringing in Walker-Peters would obviously be a boost for the Hammers, with David Moyes able to bring a fresh face into the fold at the club.

However, his limited experience in the Premier League would be a cause to concern, as well for Southampton 

However, with right-back being a huge need at the minute for West Ham, a loan deal could be the best deal for both parties at the end of the day.
