Portugal U21 left-back Nuno Tavares is being linked with a move to West Ham United.

The Arsenal youngster, who is not in the plans of boss Mikel Arteta, could leave the club this summer.

I News states that Hammers boss David Moyes is an admirer of the young left-back.

With the two clubs negotiating a deal for West Ham captain Declan Rice, Tavares has come up in talks.

While he will not be linked to the Rice deal, a separate transfer may be negotiated rather quickly.

Arsenal would be happy to sell a player who is not part of their first team plans.
