West Brom interested in Valencia

West Ham could let Enner Valencia leave this summer with fellow Premier League side West Bromwich Albion showing an interest.

The Metro report that the Baggies boss Tony Pulis is in the market for a striker with Enner Valencia said to be a top target. The Express and Star also ran with a similar story in May.

The Ecuadorian international only scored four times in 19 appearances last season with injuries plaguing his campaign.

Since joining from Pachuca, Valencia has failed to hit the giddy heights that persuaded the East London side to part with £12-million after a storming World Cup in Brazil. In total he has appeared 61 times in the West Ham colours but only scored 10 times.

The Hammers have been linked with a wealth of strikers already this summer including Michy Batshuayi of Marseille and Isaac Success of Granada.

With West Ham seemingly set on signing a striker or two this summer it’s likely that one of their current forwards will have to leave the club. It seems like Enner Valencia is the most likely candidate to do so.

He went on record in an interview with Marca last week though hinting to a move to La Liga having stated he would like to play there as it’s one of the best leagues in the world.
