Brentford have offered West Ham £35 million for defender El-Hadji Malick Diouf. The deal is close to completion, with the Hammers looking to acquire Harry Amass from Manchester United as his replacement.

Brentford have made an official bid to West Ham for the transfer of defender El-Hadji Malick Diouf.

The initial fee for the deal is reported to be £35 million, with potential add-ons pushing the total package to around £40 million.

West Ham are expected to accept this offer, as the club hierarchy have already earmarked a suitable replacement in Manchester United's left-back, Harry Amass.

Negotiations regarding Diouf's transfer are progressing well, with the Hammers planning to make their first formal approach for Amass in the coming days to strengthen their defence ahead of the new season.
