Southampton have told West Ham it will take £20m to sign Kyle Walker-Peters this summer, sources have told Football Insider.

This comes after talks between the London-based club and Premier League new boys over a deal for the right-back.

Even though the Premier League sides have been negotiating, sources say there is no agreement in place.

The 27-year-old is believed to be keen to join the Irons this summer as he heads into the final year of his Saints contract.

West Ham are in the market for a right-back in this window after losing Ben Johnson, who left the club at the end of his contract.

Even though Southampton are willing to sell Walker-Peters this summer, they may lose out on a deal with West Ham.

The Hammers are currently assessing the market for other options, including Torino’s Raoul Bellanova.

The Saints are also hoping to be active in the transfer market this summer, as they aim to bolster their attacking options.
