- Liverpool have reignited heir interest in Jarrod Bowen
- The West Ham captain has been a long-standing target of the Reds
- The interest follows the news Hugo Ekitike will be out for up to 12 months
West Ham United are doing all they can to stay in the Premier League this season. The Hammers have seen a huge turnaround since the beginning of 2026, with Nuno Espirito Santo’s team now out of the relegation zone.
Unfortunately, a huge turnaround like West Ham have had, always leads to interest from those above. Mateus Fernandes, who joined the Hammers in the summer, is already tipped for a move with the likes of Manchester United and their cross-city rivals, Manchester City chasing the Portugal international.
The Irons also face competition for their standout defender, Axel Disasi. The Frenchman is on-loan from Chelsea but his performances have seen his stock rise. West Ham want to sign the 28-year-old permanently but so do Fulham and Aston Villa.
Jarrod Bowen, who currently has the most goal involvements of any Englishman in the Premier League, is no exception to the interest. Liverpool have long-standing interest in the winger but it looked to have cooled with the Reds looking at other options. Now, with new injury woes, the Merseyside team are back in for the 29-year-old.
Liverpool reignite interest in Jarrod Bowen
Liverpool were dealt a huge blow this week with the news that Hugo Ekitike could miss up to 12 months with a torn Achilles. According to Flashscore, this news, alongside Mohamed Salah leaving at the end of the season, has seen Arne Slot’s team reignite interest in Bowen.

When Salah’s departure was announced, reports suggested that Liverpool would immediately turn to Bowen. Instead, it was said the the Reds would look elsewhere until they could find their perfect replacement.
Now, with Ekitike’s injury news, Slot’s team have had to rethink their strategy. Liverpool are now in the market for two wide attackers, with Bowen being one of the two. The Red’s have long-admired the 29-year-old and could finally pull the trigger on a move this summer.
