Twitter: Brighton, Huddersfield & Watford interested in signing West Ham striker Ashley Fletcher on loan. Lots of Championship clubs want him as well (@SkyKaveh)

Fletcher showed glimpses of quality when called upon for West Ham last season but didn’t exactly represent himself as the immediate solution to the club’s striking problems.

Now, though, with Javier Hernandez through the door, Fletcher could be surplus to Slaven Bilic’s requirements for the season. This means that a loan move may be on the cards.

Newly promoted duo Brighton and Huddersfield would undoubtedly offer Fletcher a better chance at first-team football next season, but Watford are relatively well stocked up front.

Solhekol states that a plethora of Championship clubs are keen on a move for Fletcher, also. This could be a more attractive proposition for both the player and the club, as he’s likely to gain more regular playing time in the second tier.
