Journalist issues four-word verdict if West Ham will sign 28 y/o Spurs target – originally posted on Sportslens.com
Danny Ings could be one of the strikers to be in demand this summer.
The 28-year-old, who dazzled last season for Southampton, has made it clear that he won’t sign a contract extension at St Mary’s.
He has 12 months left on his present deal, and the Saints are keen to keep him at the club. However, it has reached a point where they are resigned to losing him.
Popular talkSport journalist, Alex Crook, has suggested that Ings is holding out for either Manchester United or Manchester City to make an offer for him.
Earlier this month, reports emerged that City have registered their interest in signing the Southampton striker as they look to fill the void left by Sergio Aguero.
City are reportedly keen to land Harry Kane from Tottenham Hotspur and have had their opening bid of £100 million rejected.
During the show, former West Ham striker Carlton Cole asked: “So he wouldn’t go to West Ham because West Ham need a striker.”
Crook replied: “I don’t believe so.”
Ings has been linked with a move to a host of clubs, including Tottenham Hotspur, but chances are unlikely that he would join the north London club.
The former Liverpool striker scored 12 goals and provided four assists last season in the Premier League for the Saints.
He is probably seeking to join a big club where he will have a chance to win trophies.
Chelsea are also reportedly keen to sign Ings, and he may fancy a move to London if they come up with a decent offer.
