West Ham Have Struck a Shocking Agreement Worth ’ £93m With Arsenal In Exchange For
This summer, Julen Lopetegui has a ton of work to do at West Ham, and one of his main priorities should be buying a top-tier striker.
It makes sense that the Hammers manager would give the acquisition of a new center-forward top priority during the summer transfer window.
Over the previous nine years, Michail Antonio has been excellent for the Hammers, but Lopetegui needs to give the 34-year-old a significant boost right now.
This summer, West Ham has been connected to a number of strikers, including Sevilla’s star player Youssef En-Nesyri and Roma’s Tammy Abraham (Give Me Sport).
But I believe there is another striker out there who would be ideal to bring to West Ham this summer.
It was really alarming
last week, when Arsenal put their best foot forward to sign him.
Arsenal gives West Ham significant transfer funding
It appears that the Gunners will have an easier time of it than the Hammers this summer.
This is due to Arteta’s recent change in transfer objectives.
Last week, rumors circulated that Arsenal was attempting to outbid West Ham for Serhou Guirassy, reportedly putting up a £15 million bid from the north London team.
But according to a report from Area Napoli, the Gunners may now be prepared to pursue Victor Osimhen, a far more costly and ambitious choice.
Osimhen is a genuinely exceptional striker who was called “world-class” by Jose Mourinho (Yahoo) last season.
With just two years left on his current contract, the 25-year-old center forward (Goal) may go for less than the €110 million (£93 million) that Napoli is reportedly requesting.
With 250 career games played for club and country, Osimhen has scored 134 goals, and it is obvious that he would elevate Arsenal to new heights.
The fact that the Gunners have acquired the Nigerian international means that there should be a strong possibility for the Hammers to bring Guirassy to the London Stadium.
In just 30 appearances for Stuttgart last season, the former Rennes striker scored 30 goals and provided three assists.
Guirassy is a very strong athlete who can finish well in the air and has very good speed. He is the perfect striker for Lopetegui’s formation.
Come on Arsenal, do us a massive favor by signing Osimhen this summer. West Ham would benefit greatly from the transfer.
