Italian Serie A giants AC Milan and Premier League club West Ham United have both expressed keen interest in signing Nigerian midfielder Raphael Onyedika.

Onyedika, 24, has been in impressive form for Club Brugge since joining the club from FC Midtjylland in the summer of 2022.

According to TBR Football,, West Ham are monitoring Onyedika as a potential replacement for Tomas Souček, who is set to leave the London Stadium this summer amid interest from other Premier League clubs.

TBR Football chief correspondent Graeme Bailey has been informed that West Ham have contacted Club Brugge over a possible deal for Onyedika.

AC Milan have also entered the fray for the Nigerian midfielder as a potential replacement for Tijani Reijnders, who is close to joining Manchester City in the English Premier League.

The Rossoneri have been long-time admirers of Onyedika. Reports indicate that Milan had previously shown interest in Onyedika last summer but failed to meet Club Brugge’s €24 million valuation.
