Flocking to Twitter, many West Ham United fans have reacted over news involving Paris-Saint Germain defender Layvin Kurzawa.

The 28-year-old, who was thought to be on the verge of joining Lyon earlier this week, has seen that move cut short as the Ligue 1 side instead close in on a loan deal for Chelsea left-back Emerson Palmieri (L'Equipe via GFFN).

That has left the door wide open for any other interested clubs to swoop in and potentially try their hand for Kurzawa.

The Frenchman has been consistently linked with a move away from Paris this summer and now RMC Sport journalist Loic Tanzi (via Canal Supporters) has brought news involving West Ham United.

He claims that the Hammers and GSB have entered the race to sign Kurzawa this summer, who can play both as a left-back and left-midfielder - similar to Arthur Masuaku.

As news emerges of West Ham's interest in the 13-cap international, many Irons fans have erupted with a mixed array of responses on Twitter.
