Belgian club RSC Anderlecht has been monitoring Metz's 20-year-old Senegalese midfielder, Alpha Touré. It appears that West Ham has progressed further than their rivals to sign the player, and the Premier League side has reached an agreement in principle with him. West Ham is reportedly prepared to pay a fee of nearly £6 million. With discussions between the clubs progressing quickly, the deal is expected to be completed by the following week. This followed a rejected offer from the same club in January 2026, which was reportedly valued at €7 million. Touré has 5 caps for Senegal's U17 team, a contract with the French club until June 2028, and a current Transfermarkt valuation of €5.00m.
