West Ham showing an interest in Leeds' Joel Piroe. As of Sunday lunch, nothing is yet close. Leeds' preference is a permanent exit. Loan with obligation formula could be entertained.⚪️ 🤝 @alex_crook https://t.co/qxPqlP3imH

#WHUFC exploring a move for Joel Piroe as Troy Parrott alternative but nothing imminent at this stage. #LUFC want sale or loan with obligation and he is on hefty wages @talkSPORT @JacobsBen
