West Ham close on French starlet

West Ham are stepping up their efforts to sign French full-back Timothee Kolodziejczak from Nice, reports L’Equipe.

The Hammers have already reached an agreement over the transfer fee believed to be between €3m and €5m, but they have yet to agree personal terms with the player.

And with Southampton and QPR also showing interest, West Ham will have to act quickly if they want to get their man.

Having come through the youth ranks at Lens, the 22-year-old moved to Lyon in 2009, but he was unable to prove his worth at Stade Gerland, making just 12 first team appearances during four years at the club.

Nevertheless, a move to Nice helped kick start his career, with Kolodziejczak going on to make 71 Ligue 1 appearances for les Aiglons.

He seems to have done enough to catch the eye of said Premier League sides and a summer switch to England appears on the cards.
