Fabrizio Romano claims that Daniel Rigge is about to agree to a new contract with West Ham United.
Romano revealed on X platform that four Premier League clubs and two La Liga clubs were interested in the 17-year-old in the summer.

It is known, however, that the “highly-rated talent” decided to forego that desire and has vowed to stay with the Irons.
The young midfielder is allegedly poised to agree to a “long-term deal” with the East London team, according to Romano.
The 17-year-old has been in scorching form so far this season in the Under-18s Premier League, netting three goals in four games, including one on Saturday in a 2-0 victory over Norwich Under-18s.
