West Ham plot move for Arsenal star

Arsenal and England forward Theo Walcott is a transfer target for West Ham United, according to a report from Sami Mokbel of The Daily Mail.

The 27-year-old has lost his starting role at the Gunners and a lack of regular playing time has seriously jeopardised his chances of being included in the England squad for Euro 2016.

In a somewhat cruel twist of fate, injuries to his Arsenal teammates Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Danny Welbeck might actually see him make Roy Hodgson’s squad, but the lack of game time at Arsenal could see him leave.

According to the report, West Ham boss Slaven Bilic is a keen admirer of the former Southampton man and is willing to take him to the Olympic Stadium to help him revive his stalling career.

When not hampered by injuries, Walcott is still a highly effective player and would bring a lot of pace to the West Ham attack.
