West Ham talks with McNeil
The report read: “Crystal Palace and West Ham are both in talks with Burnley over winger Dwight McNeil.
“He is seen as a prime target because of his experience of top-flight football, as well as his age.
“McNeil is keen to return to the Premier League and considering a number of options. McNeil has two years remaining on his deal and the club have an option to extend it for a further year.
“They would demand a fee in excess of £15 million and are in a strong bargaining position despite their relegation.”
McNeil is a rare young English talent who may well have actually been underhyped because of the club he played for.
