ExWHUemployee: West Ham eyeing ‘phenomenal’ £45m-rated man; he’s allegedly open to joining Moyes

Writing on his Patreon, reliable club insider ExWHUemployee has shared news on which strikers are being eyed by West Ham as he makes a claim involving Lille star Jonathan David.

As reported by the trusted Irons source, France’s top flight is seen by manager David Moyes and recruitment chief Rob Newman as a real potential pool for talent.

It is no coincidence that links to some of Ligue 1’s brightest stars have come out of the woodwork recently, with West Ham apparently in talks for Reims sensation Hugo Ekitike according to Sky Sports.

90min claim that the Hammers are also discussing a double-loan with Marseille which would include promising forward Bamba Dieng and defender Duje Caleta-Car.

Now, in more news on who West Ham have got their eye on across the channel, Ex says that they are keeping tabs on rising Lille star David.

Writing on his Patreon, backing interest in both Dieng and Ekitike, the Hammers insider claims that Moyes is also eyeing the in-demand Canada striker.

David has attracted plenty of attention across Europe, thanks in part to his stunning form at the Stade Pierre Mauroy, with the likes of Chelsea, Tottenham, Liverpool, Man United, Arsenal, Barcelona and Real Madrid also watching on (TSN).

A move for the scintillating 22-year-old would undoubtedly turn heads at Rush Green and signal West Ham’s intent to back Moyes into a golden era.

However, it is a transfer riddled with challenges, most notably the intense interest across Europe and his possible asking price – with Transfermarkt estimating it at around £45 million.

One advantage that Newman and co could hold in the race is David’s alleged openness to signing for West Ham, with Calciomercato previously revealing he ‘likes’ the idea of joining Moyes.
