How Kyle Walker-Peters feels about West Ham move as Graham Potter decision revealed…
TBR Football can exclusively confirm the latest developments around West Ham United’s pursuit of Kyle Walker-Peters, who is now London Stadium-bound.
Aaron Cresswell and Vladimir Coufal have both left West Ham, leaving Aaron Wan-Bissaka as the only senior right-back at the club.
However, West Ham have moved quickly for Walker-Peters, who is currently a free agent after his Southampton contract expired last month.
TBR Football can also reveal the role Graham Potter played in getting Walker-Peters to West Ham.

Kyle Walker-Peters expected to sign for West Ham on Monday
TBR Football chief correspondent Graeme Bailey has confirmed that Kyle Walker-Peters has agreed a three-year deal with West Ham.
We understand that the move for the England international is set to be confirmed by Monday.
“I am told that Walker-Peters is very happy to be back in London and excited to be at West Ham,” Bailey exclusively told TBR Football.
“At one point, it did look like Tottenham would be his destination – they held talks, but Spurs did not make a firm offer.
“Graham Potter pushed the club to make their move on Thursday which persuaded Walker-Peters to back out of the deal with Besiktas.
“Walker-Peters will provide high quality options on both sides of West Ham’s defence.”
