West Ham hold “strong interest” in London Stadium goalscorer, he could fill JWP’s boots. West Ham have a “strong interest” in signing Chelsea youngster Carney Chukwuemeka, according to insider ExWHUEmployee.
Amid reports of possible January exits for star duo Lucas Paqueta and Mohammed Kudus, the club are seemingly exploring the market for possible replacements.
Our international recruitment has been somewhat hit-and-miss of late. Guido Rodriguez has struggled since signing on a free transfer from Real Betis, while the jury is still out on Jean-Clair Todibo despite showing flashes of brilliance early on this season.
Meanwhile, our domestic recruitment has been a lot better. Max Kilman has proven to be worth every penny of the £40m we paid for him last summer, while Aaron Wan-Bissaka has been a solid addition at right-back.
As a result, it’s believed the Hammers are focusing more of their scouting efforts closer to home, with domestic players potentially taking priority over the coming transfer windows.
