Report suggests West Ham are ready to pay more than £34m for 24-goal target – originally posted on Sportslens.com
West Ham United are interested in signing the Sevilla striker Youssef En-Nesyri.
The Moroccan international was linked with a move to the Hammers last season as well.
According to Eldesmarque, the Hammers are prepared to pay more than €40 million (£34m) for the Sevilla star and they will face competition from Premier League rivals Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The Londoners will have to move quickly in order to fend off the competition and secure the 24-year-old’s services this summer.
Apparently, the striker is not keen on a move away from the Spanish club this summer and it remains to be seen whether the hammers can alter his stance with a lucrative offer.
SL View: Significant upgrade on Michail Antonio
The 24-year-old had a highly impressive season with the Spanish outfit and he could prove to be a quality addition to the West Ham attack.
David Moyes needs to bring in a specialist striker and the towering Sevilla forward seems like an ideal fit. The Hammers sold Sebastien Haller last season and they are yet to bring in a replacement.
The Sevilla forward managed to score 24 goals in all competitions for Sevilla this past season and he would be a major upgrade on Michail Antonio. The Hammers ace is not a natural goalscorer and Moyes needs to find an alternative this summer.
West Ham will be playing Europa League football next season and they will need better attacking options against quality European opposition.
