West Ham boss David Moyes is willing to offer Alfie Mawson a massive pay-hike to leave Swansea City.
The Sun says Swans chairman Huw Jenkins thought to be battling to fend off West Ham's £25m interest in centre-back Mawson.
The Swans want nearer £40m but the Hammers have appeared willing to offer a few extras, including old boy Andre Ayew.
And Hammers boss Moyes is willing to quadruple the 23-year-old's weekly pay to £60,000.
New Swans boss Carlos Carvalhal is eager to hang onto Mawson beyond the closure of this month's market.
