West Ham United are no longer actively pursuing Kyle Walker-Peters this summer, according to ExWHUEmployee via The West Ham Way.

Despite previous interest in the Southampton full-back, the club’s new leadership team is said to be looking elsewhere.

Walker-Peters Dropped Down the List

ExWHUEmployee reports that incoming manager Graham Potter and new technical director Tim Macaulay don’t see Walker-Peters as a current priority.

“Although he is a free agent, Potter and Macaulay have others ahead of him and at this stage a move for the player is unlikely,”

The 27-year-old, who started out at Tottenham before moving to Southampton, has experience playing on both flanks. His versatility has reportedly caught the attention of a number of Premier League sides.

Other Clubs Now Leading the Chase

Walker-Peters is thought to be drawing interest from Fulham, Crystal Palace, Everton and Tottenham, according to the same report.

With that level of competition and West Ham changing direction, the chances of him ending up at the London Stadium seem slim.

Player Sales Still Take Priority

ExWHUEmployee also notes that West Ham are currently more focused on outgoings rather than splashing out on new signings.

A club source told them the market remains “slow”, and that selling players is the priority for now. That approach could delay further signings until a few more spots open up.
