Vladimir Coufal could be nearing his West Ham exit as clubs in Germany and Turkey eye a move for the Hammers’ right-back.
The Czech international has been an outstanding servant since signing from Slavia Prague for a little over £5 million, following a recommendation from his close friend Tomáš Souček.
Last season, West Ham activated a 12-month option on the defender’s contract, keeping him registered with the Irons until June 2025. Unfortunately for the popular Coufal, he has been surplus to requirements at the London Stadium since the club signed Aaron Wan-Bissaka from Manchester United in the summer transfer window.
With no European football and an early exit from the Carabao Cup, the 32-year-old has had limited opportunities, serving primarily as understudy to AWB. Naturally, this has alerted other clubs to his availability, with reports suggesting a move could happen as soon as January, with West Ham receiving a nominal fee for his services.
Coufal has been an excellent servant for the Hammers, playing a huge part in the club’s most successful period in recent years.
