Report: West Ham United told to pay £3m for Peter Crouch

By , Reporter
Stoke City inform West Ham United that they will need to pay £3m to sign Peter Crouch, according to reports.

West Ham United have reportedly been told that they will have to pay £3m to sign Peter Crouch this summer.

Hammers boss Sam Allardyce is searching for a striker to fill the void left by Andy Carroll's ankle injury, and Crouch is believed to be high on a list of possible targets.

According to The Telegraph, Stoke City are refusing to come below their asking price as Mark Hughes prepares for the new season with the 33-year-old in his plans.

The report suggests that West Ham's hierarchy value Crouch at around £1m, and could now be forced to look elsewhere for another attacking option.

Hugo Almeida, Connor Wickham and Samuel Eto'o have all been linked with the club this summer.
