West Ham United have been linked with interest in signing Burnley’s Maxwel Cornet in a deal reportedly worth £20million.
While Burnley failed to impress last term before being relegated down to the Championship, one player who did shine for them was versatile Ivorian Cornet, who scored nine goals and provided one assist from 26 games last term, scoring over a quarter of the Clarets’ league goals last season.
A versatile winger, Cornet can also play as both a left wing-back and at left-back, suggesting that signing him could be an alternative option to landing a deal for Eintracht Frankfurt’s Filip Kostic, who has been heavily linked with a move to the London Stadium.
