West Ham have an agreement in principle with Manchester United to sign defender Harry Maguire in a deal worth in the region of £30m.
Personal terms are not expected to be a problem but there is still work to do on the details of his exit from United.
West Ham, though, are cautiously optimistic about completing the signing having had a £20m bid for the England international rejected last month.
Maguire trained with Man Utd on Wednesday morning ahead of their Premier League opener against Wolves on Monday Night Football.
United have done due diligence on several defenders, including Jean-Clair Todibo of Nice, should they be in a position to sign reinforcements at centre-back for Maguire and Eric Bailly, whose representatives have held talks with Al Nassr.
Discussions with Todibo's representatives have taken place to gauge the parameters of a potential deal.
