Man United face missing out to West Ham in Mads Hermansen transfer battle as Leicester keeper agrees personal terms.
West Ham move ahead in Hermansen chase
Manchester United may lose out on goalkeeping target Mads Hermansen during this summer. Now, West Ham are in the driving seat to land the Leicester City shot-stopper, as per The Sun.
The Danish keeper has reportedly agreed personal terms with the London side. He will be making a summer switch this transfer window. The move is more likely unless Leicester and West Ham fail to settle on a transfer fee. Hermansen has attracted attention for his poise on the ball and reflexes.
He arrived in Leicester from Brondby in 2023. With 72 games and 14 clean sheets to show for it, he’s one of the eye-catchers for a Foxes side that has been struggling. His ability to play out from the back and make key saves has attracted attention. Not only the PL clubs but top sides across Europe are showing interest in him.

United look set to miss out on key target
Ruben Amorim has been keeping tabs on Hermansen as a possible long-term fix between the sticks. United’s current number one, Andre Onana, has struggled for form, and the club is keen to bring in fresh competition.
Other PL sides, including Aston Villa and Wolves, have also shown interest. But, West Ham have made the biggest move so far by locking in the personal terms. Hermansen is open to the transfer and is keen to return to play top flight football next season.
It is being said that talks have been productive between the two clubs. For now, everything points to a transfer being made before the start of the season.
If the Hammers can get this over the line, it will be a major win. That is especially with the race involving some big names.
