West Ham United FC transfer news: Hammers flop Havard Nordtveit linked with return to Germany

Bayer Leverkusen, Hoffenheim and Wolfsburg are all interested in West Ham midfielder Havard Nordtveit.

The 26-year-old, who joined the Hammers on a free last summer from Borussia Monchengladbach, failed to set the world alight during his first season at the London Stadium.

The Norway international only managed 16 Premier League appearances and he has been linked with a return to Germany.

Bayer Leverkusen, Hoffenheim and Wolfsburg - according to Kicker - are all interested in Nordtveit and would be open to signing him this summer.

The German trio are aware of the former Arsenal man's situation and they are ready to offer him a route out if he asks to leave.

Nordtveit still has four years to run on his current contract at West Ham after signing a five-year deal when he joined last summer.
