West Ham eyeing Burnley goalkeeper Tom Heaton

West Ham are eyeing Burnley goalkeeper Tom Heaton.

The Sun says West Ham want England keeper Heaton to replace Joe Hart next season.

The Hammers have targeted the £10million-rated Burnley star as they look to solve the problem position which has dogged them for the past two years.

Hart's season-long loan from Manchester City turned into a major disappointment with the stopper being axed from the side and eventually losing out on a World Cup place this summer.

Now West Ham are hoping to finally land a consistent top class stopper by pushing Burnley to let them sign highly-rated Heaton.

The 32-year-old started this season as first choice and pushing for a place on the plane to Russia 2018.
