‘Could be an amazing signing’ – Some West Ham fans react after hearing Moyes wants 24-yr-old – originally posted on Sportslens.com
West Ham United are thought to be keen on signing Ivan Toney at the end of the season.
The 24-year-old striker has made quite an impact at Brentford and he is being lined up as a replacement for Sebastien Haller.
The Frenchman was sold to Ajax in January and the Hammers opted against signing a replacement last month.
Toney has the physical and technical attributes to adapt to West Ham’s style of play and he could prove to be a quality addition to Moyes’s squad.
The 24-year-old has scored 22 goals in 27 Championship appearances so far this season. He was brought in as a replacement for the current Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins.
The Hammers have been recently linked with the Sevilla striker Youssef En-Nesyri as well.
It will be interesting to see who they end up signing eventually.
Signing a quality striker should be a top priority for the London club at the end of this season. Ideally, they should have invested in a quality striker last month.
They have been overly reliant on Michail Antonio for goals and the 30-year-old has had his fair share of injury problems this season. It will be interesting to see if David Moyes can navigate the remaining fixtures this season with his limited attacking options now.
Get him in asap
