West Ham United are aiming to finalise a deal for Southampton skipper James Ward-Prowse.
The Saints captain is set to return to the Premier League months after his side's relegation.
Ward-Prowse, who did start for Southampton in the Championship last week, is excited about the move.
Per The Mail, the two clubs are close to agreeing a fee, with the Hammers increasing their bid.
The latest offer is 27 million plus a further 3 million in performance add-ons for Ward-Prowse.
Whether this is enough to get the deal done, or the Saints will want a slightly higher fee, a deal is inching closer.
