Irons contact agents of Bundesliga 18 goal striker

According to French magazine Le 10 Sport, the club have already made contact with the player’s agents.

The Frenchman made a total of 36 appearances across all competitions for German team FC Koln last season and scored 18 goals in the process, a return which has caught West Ham’s scouts attention.

Chinese Super League club Beijing Guoan are expected to submit a highly lucrative proposal to the striker very soon so the Hammers will have to act quickly to have a chance.

Modeste’s contract with Koln runs until the summer of 2019 and he is considered a key man at the Bundesliga club. He is seen as an ideal replacement for Diafra Sakho should he leave.
