West Ham United are keeping a close eye on 25-year-old Sporting CP star Pedro Goncalves ahead of a potential move in the summer.

According to a report by HITC, West Ham United are looking at options to bolster their attack ahead of next season and Sporting CP’s Pedro Goncalves is one of the names on their radar.

Goncalves joined Wolves back in 2017. Unfortunately, the move didn’t go according to plan and after failing to fire in the Premier League, he joined Famalicão in 2019. A year later, Sporting CP signed him and he has since gone from strength to strength.

The 25-year-old is now a mainstay at the Portuguese club. In the ongoing season, he has featured in 39 matches in all competitions and has contributed with 15 goals and 14 assists. While he prefers playing on the flanks, Goncalves can be used in multiple positions in attack as well as the midfield.

His consistent performances have put him on the radar of multiple top clubs. Liverpool were reportedly interested in him back in January. But, at this point in time, West Ham United are quite keen on having him in their ranks.
