Lyon rival West Ham for Austbø
West Ham have reportedly made their latest offer for Edvin Austbø, with KUMB saying Viking are now ready to negotiate after reaching the Champions League group stage. The outlet says the bid is believed to fall within a £10m-£15m valuation. That is movement in the reporting, not an agreement between the clubs.
Lyon are also said to remain interested after Viking rejected a reported £11m offer earlier this year. The French club are the first named current rival in this Story, although KUMB does not report a new Lyon bid.
