West Ham tracking Carl Jenkinson

West Ham United are reportedly keeping tabs on Arsenal defender Carl Jenkinson, as per The Mirror.

The report claims that the Hammers boss Sam Allardyce is hopeful of landing the England international on a season-long loan deal this summer, with the option of signing him on a permanent basis next season.

Newcastle United and Swansea have also shown interest in the former Charlton Athletic man, but the Gunners are believed to have blocked all approaches for the talented full-back.

Arsenal completed the signing of Newcastle United's Mathieu Debuchy yesterday, and this has fuelled speculation over Jenkinson's future at the club.
