West Ham linked with Auxerre midfielder Kevin Danois

West Ham have Kevin Danois in mind as they search for a central midfielder, according to ExWHUEmployee, but the report contains no West Ham bid or talks.

The West Ham Way describes Danois as a 21-year-old French Under-21 international. ExWHUEmployee says Auxerre have rejected a €15m offer from Hull City and want closer to €25m. Newcastle United and Bournemouth are also reported to be interested.

For now, Danois is a reported target rather than a transfer taking shape.
