West Ham prepare £12m move for Euro 2016 star

West Ham United are the newest Premier League club to join the race to sign Norwich City and Euro 2016 star Robbie Brady this summer, reported by the Pink’Un.

It’s believed the Hammers have already made an enquiry for the 24-year-old winger ahead of a respectable £12m offer for the Republic of Ireland international.

Brady has also been linked with Premier League champions Leicester City, Stoke, West Brom and Sunderland this summer after enhancing his reputation with a two-goal starring role at Euro 2016 for the Irish in their run to the last-16.

The Dublin born Manchester United academy product still has a couple of years left on his current deal at Carrow Road, following a move of around £7m from Hull City a year ago following their relegation from the Premier League the previous season. Brady managed to have impressively consistent seasons both at Hull and Norwich, despite both eventually ending up in relegation to the Championship.

Brady clearly stated to the Tigers fans that he left the south Yorkshire club to pursue his career in the Premier League, and is now seen as Norwich’s most lucrative asset to sell following the departure of fellow winger Nathan Redmond.

It seems unlikely that he’s willing to give another season to Alex Neil’s side to help them bounce straight back up, and the board may encourage the move to help the club’s financial standing.
