Aston Villa reject West Ham’s audacious record bid for Jhon Duran
Today at 11:18 AM
West Ham’s new and improved bid of £57million for Jhon Duran has been rejected by Aston Villa, talkSPORT understands.
An offer of £40m was submitted last week, and the Hammers’ club-record bid has also been turned down.
It’s thought that Unai Emery’s side have no interest in selling the player who recently extended his contract at the club until 2030.
West Ham previously bid for Duran last summer with an offer worth £30million plus teenager Lewis Orford, however this was turned down.
Since then Duran has gone on to score 12 goals in all competitions for Villa this term.
West Ham need a striker due to injuries suffered to existing goalscorers Niclas Fullkrug and Michail Antonio.
