​Man Utd target Diop plans West Ham talks

The representatives of Manchester United target Issa Diop will meet with West Ham United next week.

Diop is attracting interest from the Red Devils, who are in the market for a first team centre-back this summer.

The 22-year-old signed from West Ham from Toulouse last summer and impressed for Manuel Pellegrini's men.

Sky Sports reports that Diop is happy at West Ham, but a move to United is an intriguing possibility.

It is unclear if the player's representatives will demand a transfer or ask for talks on a new contract.

West Ham are not eager to sell him, but they did ask Manchester United about the availability of midfielder Scott McTominay when discussing Diop.
