West Ham move for Noussair Mazraoui collapses

West Ham's move for Bayern Munich full-back Noussair Mazraoui has collapsed.

The Hammers are in the market for a new right-back this summer, amid interest in Manchester United's Aaron Wan-Bissaka, and on Thursday agreed a fee with the German giants for Mazraoui.

West Ham agreed a deal worth around £16million for Moroccan, and subsequent reports claimed Mazraoui had agreed to the switch in principle.
