Football.London's Sam Inkersole reckons that West ham will "cave in" and pay Vladimir Coufal what he wants to extend his deal at the London Stadium.

The right-back made the £5m switch from Slavia Prague last September and went from strength to strength for the Hammers – producing several outstanding performances to help David Moyes' side qualify for the Europa League.

Coufal registered an impressive seven assists in 34 Premier League appearances, establishing himself as one of the most consistent full-backs in the division.

According to Sky Sports, West Ham have offered Coufal, who enjoyed an impressive Euro 2020 with Czech Republic, an improved contract, although the defender's representatives have been left unhappy with the financial package being presented by GSB.

However, despite their difference in Coufal's worth, Inkersole knows the importance of getting the impressive right-back tied down to long-terms.

He exclusively told The Transfer Tavern:

"He's been brilliant. He had a good Euro's as well – and was an utter bargain at £5m. I'm not surprised West Ham are trying to tie him down, but he needs to get paid and he utterly deserves that.

"He was one of the best right-back's in the division. I'm surprised that West Ham tried to low ball him a little bit, I think they will cave in and give him what he's worth."

Coufal has more than earned a contract extension and a pay rise, and whilst the two parties are still in disagreement, you fully expect a player of that importance to be signed up sooner rather than later.
