12:30 UPDATE: Hijacking West Ham?

West Ham may have forced Manchester United to adapt its summer transfer plans, the club seeking to be forgiven after missing Maxi Gomez.

The hammers turned their eyes to Eintracht Frankfurt striker Sebastien Haller.

According to The Guardian, discussions have been held with the German club for the French striker.

This could prove to be a dagger at heart for Manchester United, who would have identified Haller as a potential substitute for Romelu Lukaku, when he joined Inter Milan.
