Hans Vanaken 'wants to join West Ham this summer' as midfielder, 29, 'feels it is his last big chance to sign for a big European club'... but Club Brugge 'insist he is not for sale after turning down a £10m bid from the Hammers'

Club Brugge midfielder Hans Vanaken is 'more open than ever' to a Premier League move, as West Ham set about preparing a second offer.

David Moyes' side made an initial offer of £10 million for the 29-year-old but this was considered far too low by Brugge.

According to reports in Nieuwsblad, Vanaken is open to the move as he sees it as a last chance for a move to top European league.

He has recently become a father, but relocating is not thought to be an issue for the Belgium international.
