Europa Conference League winners West Ham United are leading the race to sign Leicester City winger Harvey Barnes. There’s plenty of interest from Premier League clubs for the forward, so read on to see the latest Harvey Barnes next club odds.
The 25-year-old is expected to leave the Foxes this summer following the club’s relegation to the Championship. Relegation has had significant implications on the latest Harvey Barnes next club odds.
Barnes is one of Leicester’s two most valuable assets, alongside James Maddison with both set to move on in this transfer window. The sale of the duo will fund the rebuild of City’s squad as they prepare for second tier football.
However the Foxes hold a stronger hand over Barnes than they do Maddison, with two years left on the winger’s contract. Maddison has just one year left on his deal at the King Power Stadium, so has the higher chance of being sold out of the pair.
Aston Villa, Newcastle and Tottenham are all said to have shown interest in the forward, but the Hammers are in pole position to land the signing.

Leicester value Barnes at £40m, but West Ham are set to launch a £30m bid for his services.
Despite the Foxes’ relegation, Barnes enjoyed his most productive season scoring 13 times in the Premier League to finish as the club’s top scorer.
He’s registered 30 goals and assists over the past two seasons in the league, more than regular England internationals Marcus Rashford and Raheem Sterling.
Barnes has one cap for his country, but playing in the Europa League next season for the Hammers could afford him more opportunities to represent the national team.
