West Ham United have tabled an offer for Club Brugge midfielder Hans Vanaken.

Het Nieuwsblad says the Hammers have offered €15m for Vanaken this week.

West Ham boss David Moyes is a fan of Vanaken, but Brugge management are reluctant to sell. Indeed, they're seeking over double to part with Vanaken before the market shuts.

The 28 year-old has a deal to 2024 with Club Brugge.

Vanaken has been likened to Tomas Soucek, who joined West Ham in January.
