West Ham are in talks with Nice left back Timothee Kolodziejczak known as Kolo
The 22 year old Frenchman has been linked with West Ham for some time but he now appears to be confirmed as one of the four left backs we are talking to.
Kolo’s senior career started at Lyon when he made 9 appearances until he moved to Nice in 2012 where he has made 64 appearances scoring one goal.
French media outlet Le 10 Sport claim West Ham made an offer of £2.5m. The left back is valued at 6 million euros by Nice but a bid of 4 million euros could tempt them to sell him as they are currently suffering from financial troubles. We are likely to have competition from Southampton who see him as a perfect replacement for Luke Shaw who looks likely to leave them in the summer. Kolo was being tracked by David Moyes when he was Manchester United boss as a replacement for Patrice Evra.
But Manchester United have instead decided to pursue Southampton’s Luke Shaw.
