Wolverhampton Wanderers defender Dominic Iorfa wants a move to West Ham, according to a family member.
The 20-year-old right-sided full back has been linked with a string of Premier League clubs since partaking in a successful Toulon tournament with England's Under 21s.Crystal Palace were considered to be the front-runners to sign Iorfa and fellow Wolves star Kortney Hause, but an an unnamed family member insists the Southend-born defender would prefer a move to the Olympic Stadium.
"It’s true that Iorfa is wanted by Southampton, Arsenal, West Ham and Crystal Palace," the unnamed individual is quoted as saying by Own Goal Nigeria.
"But for obvious reasons he is more comfortable with a move to West Ham where he is most likely to get more playing time than any of the above team."
West Ham, who previously expressed an interest in signing Iorfa back in January have only rookie Sam Byram as a recognised right-sided full back on their books.
In recent weeks the position has been filled by winger Michail Antonio, whilst centre half James Tomkins has also operated in the position previously.
Wolves are said to be seeking around £7miilion for Iorfa, who played the full 90 minutes of England's recent 2-1 Toulon Final win against hosts France.
