West Ham United are eager to hijack Crystal Palace’s move for Jarrod Bowen, according to The Daily Mail reporter Sami Mokbel.
Championship side Hull City are in advanced talks with Palace, according to Sky Sports, but West Ham and Newcastle United haven’t given up on a deal yet.
Palace’s offer for the 23-year-old is understood to be £16m plus add ons and the Hammers want to ambush the deal and bring the prolific player to the London Stadium instead.
READ WEST HAM VERDICT
Bowen, who can play on the wing and as an attacking midfielder, has got his name on the scoresheet 16 times in the Championship this season.
In his entire Championship career, Bowen has scored an incredible 52 goals in 117 appearances, so there’s no wonder why there is such a battle from Premier League sides for his services.
We believe that Bowen would be the ideal addition to the Hammers squad at this time, especially with Felipe Anderson, Andriy Yarmolenko and Michail Antonio all currently injured.
However, Palace have already agreed on a deal so it could be too late for the Hammers, but the only positive remaining is that the player himself is yet to declare his decision.
