Transfer: Diop Set To Join Manchester United

According to Telofoot, Issa Diop, West Ham United defender, has decided to leave the club for Manchester United during the summer transfer window.

The French newspaper revealed that the 22-year-old is set to join the Reds ahead of next season.

It was reported that West Ham has rejected an offer from Manchester United for the defender in excess of £40million plus a player for the France international.

The club is expected to make a better offer in order to sign the defender to Old Trafford in this summer transfer window.

Diop joined the Hammers from Ligue 1 side, Toulouse last summer, for £22 million.

The player instantly formed the first-choice partnership at West Ham’s back four with fellow arrival, Fabian Balbuena.

He started 33 games in 38 Premier League matches for West Ham’s last campaign.
