Hammers chase Man United starlet by Gonzo
West Ham are believed to be chasing Manchester United starlet Amad Diallo according to numerous news reports. It is understood that the Hammers would initially like to take the player on loan but have not ruled out a permanent move.
The Red devils signed 20-year-old 2021 for £19m after he attracted interest following his performances for Atalanta.
The Ivorian was initially loaned out to Rangers in the SPL 18 months ago and played 13 games.
However it was his loan move to Sunderland last summer where he really stood out. Diallo featured in almost all of the North East sides fixtures and impressed with 14 goals.
It is understood that there are no plans for him to feature at Old Trafford next season. Erik ten Hag is believed to be an admirer of the player but is open to him leaving on loan.
Whilst Sunderland would dearly love retain Diallo, the player himself would like Premier League football. This has evidently alerted the Hammers who are in need on reinforcements in wide areas.
