West Ham are emerging as the frontrunners to sign Leicester City star Harvey Barnes this summer.

The winger is available for a significant fee after the Foxes' relegation to the Championship.

While the likes of Aston Villa are also chasing after his signature, The Telegraph states West Ham are in pole position.

The Europa Conference League winners will play in the Europa League next season, which will appeal to Barnes.

Despite scoring 13 goals in 34 league games last season, Barnes could not keep his team up.

West Ham boss David Moyes and Villa's Unai Emery are both huge admirers of his talent.
