West Ham are moving to beat Manchester United to the signing of Swansea City defender Joe Rodon.
The Guardian says Hammers boss David Moyes is keen on adding a new centre-back to his squad before deadline day.
He has already failed with THREE bids for Burnley ace James Tarkowski.
And Moyes is now thought to be targeting Wales international Rodon.
The Swansea ace, 22, has impressed since his return from injury.
And it's believed Man United are keeping tabs on his development.
However, West Ham are now thought to be in pole position.
