West Ham in pole position to sign towering 6’6″ tall Frenchman
West Ham United are reportedly targeting a new centre-back in January.

And now back in the market for a new central defender to help provide cover and competition for the likes of Angelo Ogbonna, Nayef Aguerd and Kurt Zouma, West Ham United could once again try and tempt the 6 feet 6 inches tall Frenchman to move to London.
Currently valued at a modest £10 million, Zagadou, who has two-and-a-half years left on his contract, presents himself as an affordable and relatively low-risk mid-season option.
