Kurt Zouma’s proposed move to United Arab Emirates side Shabab Al-Ahli has collapsed after the West Ham defender failed a medical.
The 29-year-old had travelled to Dubai to complete a lucrative deal but his advisors are now trying to work out an alternative option.
Zouma still has a year left on his Hammers contract but the club has already brought in another central defender in Jean-Clair Todibo from Nice on a loan deal that includes a 40m euros (£34.22m) obligation to buy the 24-year-old Frenchman.
In addition, West Ham paid Wolves £40m for their skipper, and another centre-back, Max Kilman last month.
