Diop, 25, has only featured eight times in the league for the Hammers this season, however, this did come in a run of eight-straight starts in December and January.

The defender joined West Ham for a fee of £22m from Toulouse in summer 2018 but has failed to cement his place in David Moyes’s first team squad.

If a deal for Diop is likely to happen, then West Ham would need to sign a replacement first and L’Equipe, who have reported on Newcastle’s reignited interest in Diop, believe that Marseille’s Duje Caleta Car is the man being targeted for a move to London.

Only if this move happens will the Hammers sanction a deal that sees Diop leave the London Stadium.

A fee of around €8million may be enough to secure his services.

Ramsey reports

Newcastle United had been linked with a move for the former Arsenal man, however, fresh reports suggest that it is Wolves who are preparing for a late offer for the midfielder, whilst Burnley have also reportedly tabled an offer for the 31-year-old.
