West Ham have been credited with reported 🌞interest in Burnley’s Josh Brownhill – and some Hammers fans on Twitter have given an extremely positive response to the speculation.

David Moyes’🐟 side are being linked with the♐ midfielder at their Premier League rivals.

, Burnleyꦓ may have a sizeable task on their hands trying to keep Brownhill at Turf Moor beyond this season due to his impressive performances.

It is explained that the 25-year-old is being scouted by West Ham, Aston Villa, Crystal Palace, Wolverhampt🌌on Wanderers and Southampton.

Brownhill, who earns £4ℱ0,000-a-week (), is an ever-present in the Burnley XI when fit and one of their most consistent performers.

He’s a technical central midfiel🐽der by trade that is great with the ball at his feet and is an excellent passer, bu♍t he’s shown he can slot in as a right-winger too.

His hi🀅gh work-rate off the ball m꧒akes him a vital part of the system and he was previously in the academy at Manchester United.

A sel🙈ection of West Ham supporters on social media feel that the Burnlꩲey mainstay may be a great addition at the London Stadium.

It’s unclear on if the Hammers will step up interest in him, but he’s an all-action midfielder that loo﷽ks comfortable at top-flight level and perhaps he’d get more recognition if he was playing at a bigger club.

Here are some💞 West Ham fans discussing target Brownhill:

This brownhill is a class act we went for him before but missed out on him.
He would be perfect to come in and play on the right side of midfield get him in moyesy.
Plus he would be a good p🐼layer to 👍come in if rice or soucek needs a rest

I rate him.

Good pl♒ayer imo. 🅰Doubt he’d be happy to come to us though just to be a squad player.
