Last updated on .From the section West HamJohnstone made his England debut in the Euro 2020 warm-up win over Romania in JuneWest Ham have had a £10m bid for England goalkeeper Sam Johnstone turned down by West Brom. The 28-year-old has one year left on his contract and new Baggies manager Valerien Ismael has said Johnstone is likely to leave this summer. However, West Brom sources are adamant they have no need to sell players cheaply despite their relegation from the Premier League. West Ham are looking for a goalkeeping reinforcement given current first-choice Lukasz Fabianski is now 36. Given the massive gap in valuation on Johnstone, West Ham are likely to focus on their other top target, Alphonse Areola, who was part of France's World Cup squad in 2018 and spent last season on loan at Fulham.
