West Ham United have made a £12m bid for Norwich City’s talented midfielder James Maddison.

David Moyes watched the 21-year-old at Stamford Bridge last week as Norwich drew 1-1 with Chelsea before losing on penalties.

He has been linked with a host of Premier League clubs, including Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur, and Norwich are likely to hold out for more than the £12m offered by West Ham.

Maddison graduated through the Coventry City academy before joining Norwich in 2016. He spent the start of last season on loan with the Scottish Premiership club Aberdeen, scoring twice in 14 appearances.

Meanwhile, the Premier League side are edging closer to signing the Internazionale midfielder João Mário on loan with an option to buy. The Portuguese was having a medical at West Ham on Thursday.
