West Ham, Lyon go for Atletico Madrid midfielder Geoffrey Kondogbia

West Ham United and Lyon are the latest teams to enter the race for Atletico Madrid midfielder Geoffrey Kondogbia.

The French destroyer is one who West Ham would see as a Declan Rice replacement.

Per Relevo, the Hammers are ready to do a permanent deal with Atleti for their defensive midfielder.

Kondogbia is still highly rated, but is no longer a regular at Atletico, which means he is available for a modest sum.

The report says that he may be sold for as little as £4 million this summer.

West Ham are likely to sell Rice to either Arsenal or Manchester United for a near record fee.
