Aston Villa have rejected a bid worth £57m from West Ham for striker Jhon Duran.
Villa do not want to sell and it is understood they value Duran upwards of £70m.
West Ham have a long-standing interest in Duran - who recently extended his contract until 2030 - and new West Ham boss Graham Potter is known to be a big admirer.
The Hammers tried to sign Duran in the summer but failed to meet Villa's valuation.
The 21-year-old has scored seven Premier League goals in 19 appearances this season, with Ollie Watkins used as Unai Emery's preferred forward.
