# Sevilla to offer West Ham target Youssef En-Nesyri a new contract

Sevilla are hoping to extend [Youssef En-Nesyri](https://readwestham.com/2021/02/19/west-ham-fans-discuss-possible-youseff-en-nesyri-boost/)‘s contract and quash interest from [West Ham](https://readwestham.com/2021/02/22/declan-rice-west-ham-champions-league-ambitions/) among others, according to a report from [90min.com](https://www.90min.com/posts/exclusive-sevilla-offer-premier-league-target-youssef-en-nesyri-new-contract).

The striker was on the Hammers’ radar in January and it is widely expected that David Moyes will again try to land the 23-year-old once again in the summer ([Daily Mail](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-9226203/West-Ham-set-ignite-35m-rated-Sevilla-star-Youssef-En-Nesyri-summer.html)).

In order to stave off any potential suitors, [90min.com](https://www.90min.com/posts/exclusive-sevilla-offer-premier-league-target-youssef-en-nesyri-new-contract) claimed that Sevilla are keen to agree on a fresh contract with a major pay rise to reflect the Moroccan’s breakthrough season in Spain. His current contract [expires in 2025](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/youssef-en-nesyri/profil/spieler/433049), suggesting that this new deal has been brought about by a desire to offer increased wages.

Similarly to West Ham, Sevilla are enjoying a [superb domestic campaign](https://www.skysports.com/la-liga-table) and their aspirations are largely down the goals of En-Nesryi, who currently sits on [13 strikes in 22 La Liga appearances](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/spanish-la-liga/top-scorers). Recently, former Liverpool ace Luis Garcia [proclaimed](https://africanfootball.com/news/784380/Former-Barcelona-Liverpool-star-in-awe-of-Youssef-En-Nesyri) that the 23-year-old has been ‘on fire’ in Andalucia.

Moyes stood firm in January and [didn’t bow to external pressures](https://talksport.com/football/833195/trevor-sinclair-west-ham-striker-january-transfers/) baying for a new striker, a decision which has since seen some justification as the Irons [continue their fine form](https://www.whufc.com/fixtures/first-team/fixtures-and-results).

### READ WEST HAM VERDICT

This summer’s search for a new centre-forward is going to be a compelling one. With a host of suitors available to the Hammers, and Moyes [determined to land the perfect solution](https://www.bt.com/sport/news/2021/january/david-moyes-does-not-want-to-be-hammered-for-another-striking-mistake), it could be a long and drawn-out process.

West Ham will certainly hope that En-Neysri sees his future elsewhere, but with [Champions League football looking a distinct possibility](https://www.skysports.com/la-liga-table) in Seville, prising the Moroccan away in the summer could be an ominous task.
