# Hammers fans excited by Eze links

West Ham United are [reportedly](https://www.footballinsider247.com/west-ham-put-eze-swoop-on-hold/) interested in Eberechi Eze but have put the move on hold for the time being. Despite that, many Hammers fans are excited about his potential arrival.

As reported on [Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/west-ham-put-eze-swoop-on-hold/), the Hammers are understood to be currently assessing their options, which is why a formal approach for the playmaker has not yet been made.

£20m rated Eze is attracting plenty of Premier League interest, including from West Ham’s rivals Tottenham Hotspur ([Goal](https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/eze-tottenham-hotspur-in-race-to-sign-20million-rated-qpr/1wd07i38t34u91h5t1uqiao1ky)).

The QPR attacking midfielder has been a standout player in the Championship this season, finding the back of the net 12 times and registering eight assists ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/eberechi-eze/leistungsdaten/spieler/479999)).

It is that record that has attracted teams like West Ham, who seem to need an attacking midfielder with an eye for goal as first-team star Manuel Lanzini still [hasn’t got his name on the scoresheet](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/manuel-lanzini/leistungsdaten/spieler/135853)this term.

Many Hammers fans[on Twitter](https://twitter.com/WHUFCFZ/status/1244612270342144000) believe that Eze is a very good player and showed their excitement, whilst others feel he’s the ideal replacement for Lanzini.

> Twitter: @MickPenn2 You should be. Great player. (@WHUFCFZ)

> Twitter: @WHUFCFZ Exactly the sort of signing we should be making would definitely shift Lanzini out to fund him (@willearle\_)

> Twitter: @WHUFCFZ Would gladly sell Lanzini if it meant either Eze or Buendia replaced him. (@BrysonJoe6)
