The Tigers, who are 19th in the Premier League, rejected a bid from the Hammers earlier this month believed to be in the region of £6m.

It is now down to Scotland midfielder Snodgrass, 29, to decide where he wants to go.

Hull head coach Marco Silva has stated he would like to keep Snodgrass at the KCOM.

The winger has been at Hull since 2014 after stints at Carrow Road and Leeds.

Burnley are looking to add his firepower to Andre Gray's seven goals.
