West Ham transfer news: Oliver Glasner ‘sure’ Filip Kostic will stay at Eintracht Frankfurt this summer

Jonathan Gorrie28 July 2022

Eintracht Frankfurt manager Oliver Glasner believes there is little chance of Filip Kostic joining West Ham.

The Serbian wing-back is a target for David Moyes this summer, with the London club willing to meet Frankfurt’s asking price of around £12.75m.

Still, there have been doubts as to whether or not the 29-year-old would be willing to swap Champions League football with the Bundesliga side for the Europa Conference League at West Ham.

With just a year left on his contract at Frankfurt, there is also the possibility Kostic secures a more lucrative move away next summer as a free agent.

The signing of a new left-back to cover and compete with Aaron Cresswell was a priority for Moyes, although the club will seemingly have to look elsewhere on that front.

Speaking to Sky Germany, Glasner said: “I don’t know what will happen until September 1st, but as of today I’m sure he’ll stay.”
