West Ham are understood to have agreed a deal with Celtic for Arne Engels, it’s been reported by ExWHUEmployee.

Reporting exclusively on The West Ham Way Patreon, our insider has revealed that the club looks to have finally captured a top target for this summer.

“It appears West Ham may have just agreed the deal for Arne Engels according to well placed Celtic sources that we have,” stated Ex.

“Negotiations have been going on for some time now after we exclusively revealed the interest in June.

“It should hopefully now reach a conclusion in the coming days as personal terms were not thought to be a problem.

“As we also revealed last night, we expected a new bid to go in and the fact that Celtic had been signing new players was a good indication that they believed it would be accepted.

“The club have followed the strategy as I have been explaining all window of waiting for targets that they actually want rather than moving around.

“This has led to some frustration from fans but should hopefully bring in the players that have always been the key targets.

“A strategy that has been different from before but should ensure we get quality recruits.

“Once this deal is done the club will turn attention fully to other targets as this has been the key one for a while.

“The deal is thought to be for around £22m and the Belgium international will finalise personal terms and start the medical procedure soon.”
