Slavia Prague defender Malick Diouf is set to join West Ham after the two clubs reached an agreement, according to the sports director of the Czechek club Jiri Bilak.

Diouf It has attracted the attention of foreign clubs for a long time, with Crystal Palace is said to be interested in January, but failing to reach an agreement with it Slavi.

Senegal International now seems determined for a transfer to the Premier League with West Ham in what may be the most expensive exit transfer from Czecheke League.

“It’s a very interesting offer, I think the most expensive departure in league history,” said the sports director of Slavia Bilak.

Western bacon had been the main bidder for some time, but negotiations withdrew until the hammers were greatly helped by the sale of Mohamed Holy to Tottenham for £ 55m.

Slavia’s boss Jaroslav Tvrdík announced at a press conference on Friday that there had been no progress in the agreement.

“We are patient. Either we will reach an agreement with West Ham or we will expect offers from other clubs.”

However, the manager also admitted that Diouf was likely to leave.

“My personal assumption is that he will disappear before the first round,” He said in an interview for Livesport.

TVRDI also hinted at social media on Sunday that it was a deal made. “Two in a year,” he posted secretly.

The manager is likely to refer to the fact that Slavia managed to sell two players in the Premier League within a year – after the goalkeeper Kinky of Anton left for Tottenham in winter.

Sports Director Bilak has now confirmed that the transfer will move forward.

Senegal International scored seven goals in 27 League games last season from defense, contributing significantly to the title and qualification in the Champions League.
