West Ham are plotting a move for Manchester United defender Di’Shon Bernard after he impressed on loan at Hull.
The 21-year-old Londoner, who joined United’s youth set-up in 2017 after leaving Chelsea, has been the subject of regular checks by Hammers scouts. And boss David Moyes, a big admirer of the player, sees the potential in Bernard to come in and provide competition at the heart of his defence.
Bernard, who is contracted with United until 2026, is highly regarded at Old Trafford but well down the pecking order and West Ham believe they can offer him a quicker pathway to the Premier League than United.
