Harry Maguire will be given a £10million payout to leave Manchester United ahead of a planned move to West Ham, according to reports.
The Red Devils have agreed the £30m move with the east London club, and personal terms are currently being discussed between Maguire and the Hammers.
West Ham remain optimistic about the move going ahead, with David Moyes preparing to offer the England star the captain's armband in the wake of Declan Rice's departure earlier in the summer window.
The former Hammers captain joined Arsenal for a British record £105m fee in July and West Ham are yet to announce his permanent replacement with just one day until the start of their next Premier League campaign.
