West Ham interested in signing Oumar Solet from RB Salzburg | OneFootball

According to Foot Mercato, West Ham United are interested in signing Oumar Solet (24) from RB Leipzig in the summer transfer window. The former Lyon centre-back is set to leave the Austrian Bundesliga in the summer in search of a new challenge elsewhere in Europe.

Solet was almost on the move in the January transfer window. Napoli showed a strong interest in the former France youth international but were unable to complete a move for the Salzburg defender. Lens also showed interest in Solet late in the winter transfer window but a move for the Lyon academy graduate was financially unattainable.

Several clubs interested

West Ham are one of several clubs interested in the 24-year-old defender ahead of the summer transfer window. Bayern Munich, Wolfsburg and Roma are also showing an interest in Solet, Foot Mercato report. With such interest in his services, the Frenchman is set to be spoilt for choice when deciding where to take the next step in his career.
