# West Ham give Henry Onyekuru two weeks to agree terms

West Ham will be looking to bring in a new striker in the summer and have their eyes set on KAS Eurpen star Henry Onyekuru for the time being.

[Liverpool](https://readliverpoolfc.com/), [Bournemouth](https://readbournemouth.com/) and [Everton](https://readeverton.com/) are also weighing up moves for the teenage forward, while [Celtic](https://readceltic.com/) failed with a January bid earlier this season, say the [Daily Mail](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-4481056/Anderlecht-Brugge-lead-sign-Henry-Onyekuru.html).

The 19-year-old forward has netted 24 goals and provided 14 assists this season in the Belgian Pro League and is tipped for a bright future in the game.

West Ham have already agreed a fee for the striker, believed to be in the region of £7m, and are the clear favourites to land his signature at this point.

However, eager to get their business done early in the transfer window, they’ve set a deadline in a fortnight’s time for Onyekuru to agree personal terms with the club or they’ll move onto other targets, [OwnGoalNigeria have reported](https://owngoalnigeria.com/2017/05/21/west-ham-gives-onyekuru-deadline-to-accept-personal-terms-else-deal-is-off/).

Anderlecht have agreed personal terms with the forward but are yet to reach an agreement over a fee with Eupen, meaning West Ham must act fast or risk missing out on the striker.
