West Ham lead race for Isaac Success

West Ham have registered an interest in Granada forward Isaac Success according to reports in the striker’s homeland.

AllNigeriaSoccer.com report that the 20-year-old are seriously considering a move for Success who scored on six occasions last season in La Liga whilst appearing 30 times for Granada.

There is a major stumbling block in a move for Success though. Serie A side Udinese who currently still own the forward, despite playing football in Spain since moving from the BJ Foundation are keen to only see the youngster join Watford if he was to move to England.

The Pozzo family who own both Udinese and Granada also own Watford, hence the stubbornness to see him go elsewhere in the Premier League.

Atlético Madrid are also said to be keeping a close eye on the forward who has a €20-million release clause in his current deal which expires in 2019.

Success is more prolific internationally having won the Fifa U-17 World Cup in 2013 and scoring twice in four games for Nigeria’s U20 side.
