Virals: West Ham ‘intensifying’ interest in Arnaut Danjuma

West Ham have been named among a number of teams stepping up interest in AFC Bournemouth forward Arnaut Danjuma. 

This comes as David Moyes begins to prepare for the additional workload brought about by Europa League qualification, with strengthening the squad a priority at the London Stadium this summer. 

Previously touted with an interest in the 24-year-old, the Hammers have now been joined by Everton and Wolves in their pursuit. 

That’s according to a report from Football League World, as cited by West Ham News & Views on Twitter. 

Those interested in the winger are said to be ‘intensifying’ their efforts after Bournemouth were eliminated from the Championship play-offs last weekend – despite Danjuma scoring in both legs.

This season the twice capped Dutch international has scored 17 goals and registered eight assists in 37 appearances – earning a 7.17 Sofascore rating in 33 outings. 

READ WEST HAM VERDICT

Signing Danjuma would be a superb piece of business this summer from the Hammers. 

Valued at £10.8million and under contract until 2024 (Transfermarkt), the versatile forward would likely be an expensive deal for the east Londoners. 

However, the Dutchman certainly possesses an array of attacking attributes that would excite Moyes no end. 

Albeit the Irons are well stocked in the attacking department – with the likes of Said Benrahma, Pablo Fornals and Jarrod Bowen already in place, Danjuma can operate in so many positions the signing would remain a no-brainer. 

matchday.
