# Exclusive: Pundit claims Tomas Soucek is worth £35-40 million

**In an exclusive interview with [The Transfer Tavern](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/), Steve Bull, who scored [306 goals](https://www.wolves.co.uk/club/history/hall-of-fame/steve-bull/) for Wolves, has claimed that West Ham should value Tomas Soucek around £35-40 million.**

Soucek originally joined the Hammers on loan for the second half of last season but was quickly snapped up on a permanent deal after impressing David Moyes in helping turn West Ham’s fortunes around.

Moyes has admitted that West Ham may have to [listen to offers](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/west-ham-rice-soucek-transfer-23851528) for both Soucek and Declan Rice this summer, even if they do qualify for the Champions League, with Rob Lee telling **[Football FanCast](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/west-ham-news/exclusive-rob-lee-rice-100-million-man-united-rumours-e73/)** that the latter is worth £100 million.

Speaking on how much Soucek could cost for any team looking to sign him and how Moyes could be tempted to cash in, Bull told **The Transfer Tavern**:

*“If he is good enough then somebody will approach West Ham and try to prise him away for around £35-40 million.*

*“Someone will tempt West Ham with an offer because he’s a very good player.”*
