Said Benrahma's £25m West Ham move 'on the brink of collapse... with the Hammers instead focusing on signing Josh King from Bournemouth'

Said Benrahma's move from Brentford to West Ham is set to collapse, according to reports.

The Algerian winger was one of the top players in the Championship last season and led the Bees to the Championship play-off final, where they lost off to Fulham.

Benrahma has been looking for a top-flight move this year and reports claimed that West Ham had agreed a £17million plus £8million in add-ons with the Championship days last week.
