West Ham Submit Contract Offer to ‘Beautiful’ Premier League Defender Following Previous Tottenham Discussions – Report

West Ham may face financial constraints this summer, requiring them to be strategic in the transfer market to strengthen their squad.

Graham Potter is eager to make his mark on the team, with a potential focus on reducing the squad’s average age.

As a result, Vladimir Coufal could leave on a free transfer, but West Ham have already identified a potential replacement.

West Ham have reportedly offered a contract to Southampton defender Kyle Walker-Peters.

According to TBR Football (April 9), Tottenham, who previously held talks with Walker-Peters, as well as Fulham and Crystal Palace, are also interested in acquiring the 27-year-old.

Despite expectations that Walker-Peters would return to Tottenham, West Ham have now entered the race for his signature.

If Walker-Peters joins West Ham, he could be an ideal replacement for Coufal.

The versatile full-back, who can play on both flanks, would bring significant Premier League experience to the squad.

His arrival on a free transfer would not only provide an upgrade but also offer a younger option in place of the departing Coufal.

Walker-Peters, who started his career at Tottenham before making 24 appearances for the first team, has developed into a more mature and dynamic attacking full-back.

His ability to contribute going forward makes him well-suited to a wing-back role in a back five, which West Ham have adopted recently.

Former Southampton manager Russell Martin described Walker-Peters as a “beautiful footballer,” praising his technical qualities.

Given Potter’s focus on a possession-based style, Walker-Peters could fit well into the system that the manager is looking to implement At west Ham.
