West Ham rival AC Milan for Fenerbahce defender Attila Szalai | OneFootball

West Ham United have jumped into the battle for Fenerbahce defender Attila Szalai.

The Hungary international is attracting interest from across Europe after being linked with Chelsea before Christmas.

Newcastle and West Ham are keen, reports Sky Sports, with AC Milan also interested.

For their part, while reluctant to lose Szalai, Fenerbace would be prepared to cash in for €20m.

Szalai is open to leaving Fener this month, though won't force anything from his end.
