West Ham United have reportedly joined London rivals Arsenal in the race to sign Celtic defender Virgil van Dijk in the winter transfer window.

  • The Dutch defender has been associated with a switch to the Emirates over the past month, with manager Arsene Wenger keen on strengthening his back-line at the start of the New Year.

    However, a report from TalkSPORT claims that West Ham United are set to provide competition to Arsenal in the pursuit of the 23-year-old.

    The report adds that the Hammers could guarantee regular first-team football to the talented centre-back, whilst he will only be considered as a back-up at the Gunners.

    Celtis are open to the player's sale for a fee of around £7m.
