West Ham United will revive their interest in FC Porto defender, Zaidu Sanusi when the transfer window reopens in January.
Sanusi was linked with a move to the Premier League side and Ligue 1 outfit, Olympic Marseille in the summer.
According to TEAMtalk, West Ham want to sign the Nigeria international as a replacement for veteran defender, Aaron Creswell.
“We’ve had it confirmed to us that Hammers scouts have been working hard on a number of potential options and one of those who has impressed is Porto’s Zaidu Sanusi,” the website wrote.
“Nigerian international, who has been with Porto since 2020, has been watched closely by West Ham including technical director Tim Steidten – who has appreciated the player for a long time. READ ALSO:
