Virals: West Ham ‘eyeing’ move for Adrian Embarba

West Ham are reportedly set for a transfer battle for Espanyol winger Adrian Embarba this summer. 

The 29-year-old Spaniard is also subject to interest from Premier League rivals Wolves and both newly promoted Norwich City and Watford are believed to be chasing the wingers signature.

That’s according to a report from Spanish publication Sport, as cited by SportNews365 on Twitter. 

Irons manager David Moyes will be hoping to bolster numerous positions in the squad this summer in order to ensure adequate strength in depth for the additional Europa League endeavours. 

Embarba enjoyed a sublime 2020/21 campaign, scored nine times and registering 14 assists in 37 La Liga 2 outings – earning an average Sofascore rating of 7.26 along the way. 

READ WEST HAM VERDICT

Predominantly a right-winger, the Madrid born ace can operate across the entire midfield as well as occasionally featuring as a central striker. 

Under contract until 2024 and valued at £6.3million (Transfermarkt), the Hammers would be forced to delve into the summer budget in order to land their man. 

Having spent his entire career in Spain, signing a 29-year-old for his first taste of Premier League football seems a risk.
