Joe Hart Edging Closer To Completing Switch Back To Premier League

Despite being busy with month, it appears West Ham are also planning for a big swoop in the summer. Enter Joe Hart.

Hart's future remains subject to fierce speculation as he continues to be linked with a host of clubs from the Premier League. But according to Sky Sports, West Ham are favourites to land his services following Liverpool withdrawing their interest.

HART

The Manchester City keeper is currently plying his trade in Italy after he was loaned out to Serie A outfit Torino.

Hart was deemed surplus to requirements by Pep Guardiola at the start of this campaign while his association with the club is on the verge of ending. And he's even conceded that his future lies else where as he mulls over a permanent deal in the summer.

Slaven Bilic will have to fend off competition from fellow-league side Chelsea who are reportedly keeping tabs on him. The Croatian is seeking a new No.1 to replace Adrian and Darren Randolph after becoming unsatisfied with their displays.

Meanwhile, the keeper-merry-go-round will apparently continue at City as Pep is set to axe summer signing Claudio Bravo following his calamities between the sticks.
