Virals: West Ham named in race for Villarreal star Arnaut Danjuma
West Ham are reportedly in the mix to sign highly-rated Villarreal forward Arnaut Danjuma.
The 25-year-old has been linked with a move to the Hammers previously and it would appear that the interest remains.

According to a report from Italian outlet Calciomercato, West Ham and Everton are both keen on the Dutchman.
The report claims that the five-cap ace ‘likes’ both clubs as the fresh suitors come on the back of recently reported interest from Liverpool.
This season Danjuma – hailed as ‘exceptional’ by Jonathan Woodgate – has scored 12 times and registered another two assists in 22 appearances across all competitions.
Valued at £36million and under contract in Spain until 2026 (Transfermarkt), signing the high-calibre winger would be an expensive deal for the Irons.
However, already a player performing on the biggest stage having scored four times in the UEFA Champions League this term, David Moyes would likely jump at the chance to land the Dutchman.
Boasting a wide range of impressive attacking traits and capable of playing across the frontline, Danjuma would be the ideal candidate to bolster the options at Moyes’ disposal in the summer.
With Liverpool likely out of the equation having signed Luis Diaz, West Ham could hold sway over Everton by qualifying for Europe.
