West Ham United and Crystal Palace Target Southampton Defender Taylor Harwood-Bellis

West Ham United and Crystal Palace are among the clubs reportedly interested in signing Southampton defender Taylor Harwood-Bellis this summer.

The 23-year-old English centre-back has been a standout performer for Southampton this season, despite the club’s struggles in the Premier League.

Harwood-Bellis, who joined Southampton permanently from Manchester City last summer after a successful loan spell, has made 28 appearances across all competitions this term, starting in 26 of those outings.

His impressive performances have not gone unnoticed, with both West Ham and Crystal Palace keen to bolster their defensive options.

Southampton, currently facing relegation, are looking to recoup their £20 million investment in Harwood-Bellis. The defender has expressed a desire to remain in the Premier League, making him an attractive target for clubs looking to strengthen their backline.

West Ham, under the management of Graham Potter, are eager to add defensive reinforcements as they aim to improve their league standing.

Crystal Palace, on the other hand, are preparing for potential departures, including Marc Guehi, and see Harwood-Bellis as a suitable replacement.
