Virals: West Ham ‘tempted’ by move for Hull City ace Keane Lewis-Potter

West Ham are believed to be ‘tempted’ to make a move for Hull City ace Keane Lewis-Potter in the January transfer window. 

The 20-year-old has previously been linked with the Hammers and has continued to impress for the Yorkshire club. 

Now, according to a report from Hull Live, the Irons are weighing up a swoop for the English starlet. 

The report claims that West Ham are ‘keeping tabs’ on Lewis-Potter and David Moyes has been watching ‘closely’ ahead of the window opening next month.

So far this season the youngster – hailed as a ‘special talent’ by Grant McCann – has scored five times and provided four assists in 23 appearances across all competitions. 

READ WEST HAM VERDICT

Valued at £900,000 and under contract in Hull until 2023 (Transfermarkt), the report states that the Championship strugglers rejected an £8million bid from Brentford and expect closer to the figure paid for Jarrod Bowen. 

Capable of playing across a variety of attacking positions – very much in the mould of Bowen – it’s easy to understand why Moyes would be an admirer of the starlet’s talents. 

However, relatively blessed in the attacking midfielder department at present, the club would be wiser to focus on bringing a striker and central defender to the London Stadium above all else.
