West Ham United have emerged as favourites to sign Tim Krul, according to the latest bookmakers odds.
The Dutch ‘keeper was set to move to Middlesbrough earlier in the summer but they opted to sign former Barcelona goalkeeper Victor Valdes on a free transfer from Manchester United. ‘Boro are still interested but Krul is adamant he wants to leave for first team football.
Slaven Bilic has given no indication of being unhappy with Adrian’s form for the Hammers last season and with Republic of Ireland goalkeeper, Darren Randolph, in good form this summer, it’s a queue Krul isn’t necessarily going to jump quickly.
Pardew is interested in taking him to Palace, according to the Shields Gazette but the Daily Star reported that Everton were also on the trail a couple of weeks ago.
One of those two seems a more likely destination, particularly Everton who recently released Tim Howard, who returned to the USA and MLS football with Colorado Rapids.
