Burnley winger Maxwel Cornet is due to have a medical in London on Thursday evening ahead of joining West Ham United in a £17.5million switch.
The Hammers have been interested in a move for the Ivory Coast international, who can also play as a wing-back and left-back, with David Moyes’ side looking to strengthen in that area ahead of the season starting against Manchester City on Sunday.
Football.London reported on Thursday morning that a bid of £17.5m had been accepted by the Clarets for Cornet following their relegation down to the Championship earlier this year. Cornet is now expected to have a medical ahead of completing a move to join the Hammers.
