# West Brom back in for Enner Valencia

West Brom are preparing a second summer move for West Ham striker Enner Valencia this summer as it looks like Aston Villa star Jordan Ayew will snub the Baggies for the Hammers.

According to the [Birmingham Mail](https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/transfer-news-west-brom-likely-11717808), sources close to the Ghanaian striker believe he is ready to join his brother, Andre, in East London, with the former Swansea forward completing his move to West Ham for a club-record fee of £20.5m.

Andre’s arrival at West Ham this summer, possibly followed by his brother Jordan as well, makes Enner Valencia’s situation at the club look bleak, and having already seen a move to Lazio break down he could be made available again.

West Brom are now prepared to make a move for the Ecuador international striker who has scored just 10 goals in 61 appearances for West Ham since his £12m move from Pachuca in the summer of 2014.

The Baggies pulled out of a deal for another Hammers striker, Diafra Sakho, last week due to a failed medical, but are ready to go in for his one-time strike partner.

Valencia is eager to secure a move away from West Ham this summer and West Brom could be his only option.
