West Ham United are going head to head with RB Leipzig for the signature of Caen winger Yann Karamoh.

The 18-year old burst onto the scene last season in Ligue One, scoring 5 goals and providing 4 assists.

The Frenchman is highly rated and was being pursued by Monaco before they signed Barcelona's Jordi Mboula.

Hammers boss Slaven Bilic is hopeful of taking advantage of the current wave of talent flowing out of France.

The east London club are reportedly prepared to offer Caen £8.75m for Karamoh's services.
