West Ham United are reportedly keen on signing 26-year-old Icelanding striker Albert Gudmundsson from Serie A club Genoa.
According to a report from Tutto Juve, West Ham United are stepping up their interest in 26-year-old Genoa striker Albert Gudmundsson, and they could look to make a move for him at the end of the season.
The Icelandic striker has 11 goals and three assists to his name across all competitions this season, and he could prove to be an upgrade on Michail Antonio and Danny Ings. Antonio has been a shadow of his former self in recent months, and the availability of Ings remains a major concern.
It is no secret that West Ham will have to invest in a quality striker, and they were linked with a number of players during the January transfer window. The Hammers have put together an impressive squad from the proceeds of the Declan Rice sale. If they can add reliable goalscorers to their ranks, there is no reason why they cannot compete at a high level every season.
They managed to win the UEFA Europa Conference League last season, and they have done quite well in the Premier League so far and are competing in the Europa League as well. They will be hoping to secure Europa League qualification for the next season as well.
West Ham will need to improve their squad to match up to their Premier League rivals, and Gudmundsson certainly has the quality to thrive in English football. The opportunity to join the London club will be an attractive one for the 26-year-old striker, and it remains to be seen whether West Ham can secure an agreement with Genoa.
A move to the Premier League will be a big opportunity for the Icelandic striker, and he will want to test himself at the highest level. West Ham might be able to offer him European football next season, and they will certainly be capable of offering him a more lucrative package compared to the Serie A club. Time will tell whether the two clubs can agree on a reasonable fee at the end of the season.
