West Ham linked with a move for Edmilson Junior

West Ham and Fulham are reportedly battling to sign Standard Liege star Edmilson Junior.

According to claims from Belgian news outlet DH, a whole host of teams across Europe are looking to recruit the winger following his impressive Pro League campaign last term.

West Ham are keen to recruit further quality in the attacking areas this summer and it seems they have established an interest in signing the 23-year-old.

It’s claimed that Junior is held in high esteem at Standard Liege, with the club’s manager desperate to see the talented winger reject interest from elsewhere and stay put in Belgium.

However, interest in the player is seemingly growing, with the likes of West Ham, Fulham and Wolves said to be the interested Premier League parties.

Interest from top-flight clubs in Italy has also built, according to DH. The likes of Sassuolo, Fiorentina and Genoa are all claimed to have expressed an interest in recruiting Junior this summer.
