West Ham are looking to secure a deal for Sam Johnstone of West Brom as they aim to find a long-term replacement for Lukasz Fabianski.
Sam Johnstone said: “I’m still a West Brom player and I’m just looking forward to going away with England, working hard and being proud of the moment. I know there has been a lot of talk about my future but it’s in West Brom’s hands rather than mine so I’ll just put it to the back of my head. You never know what can happen in football because it’s a crazy world where things can change quickly. I’ve still got a year left on my contract at West Brom so, as things stands, I’ll be going back there for pre-season.”
The Polish goalkeeper had a fine season and his form was rewarded with a one-year extension to keep him at the clubs until 2022. Fabianski will be 37 by the time his current contract comes to an end and the Hammers are planning for a future without their No.1.
