Virals: West Ham ‘return to charge’ for Youssef En-Nesyri

West Ham are believed to retain an interest in major January target Youssef En-Nesyri this summer.

Having seemingly gone all out to land the Sevilla star following the departure of Sebastien Haller only to be rebuffed at every turn, the Hammers could be about to return.

The 24-year-old striker could be forced to move on as the La Liga side look to strengthen their side with new additions.

That’s according to Spanish outlet Marca, as cited by Sport Witness on Twitter, claiming David Moyes could still reignite an interest.

The report does go on to claim En-Nesyri is unwilling to leave Seville and regards the Irons as a ‘second-row club’ despite qualifying for the Europa League next term.

En-Nesyri netted a remarkable 24 goals in just 46 appearances between La Liga and Champions League last season.

READ WEST HAM VERDICT

Signing the 35-cap Morrocan international this summer would certainly resolve the need for a top-quality forward addition.

Valued at £36million and under contract until 2025 in Spain (Transfermarkt), it would likely take a new transfer record-breaking bid to prize the star to east London.

Were the player to be interested unlike the report suggests, the Irons could certainly do much worse than En-Nesyri given the star’s quality.

matchday.
