Bournemouth duo David Brooks and Callum Wilson have been linked with West Ham amongst others according to Sky Sports
Brooks is a Welsh international and is attracting interest from a host of clubs, including West Ham, Spurs, Newcastle and Crystal Palace.
It’s been revealed that former Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino wanted the winger last season and was quoted £50million, which put the club off from making a bid. Sheffield United sold the 23-year-old to Bournemouth two years ago for £12million and inserted a sell-on clause.
The blades would be set to receive 10% of the selling price Bournemouth receive -£12million.
The Cherries are expected to seek a fee in excess of £20m to sell Wilson after their five-year spell in the Premier League came to an end on Sunday.
The Hammers are known to want to add pace to their front line and Wilson, who has scored 67 goals in 180 appearances for the south coast side,
Brooks’ and Wilson agent is West Ham favored agent Will Salthouse of Unique Sports Management.
Salthouse also manages other West Ham transfer targets including Said Benrahma and Christoph Zimmermann.
USM are also the agents of West Ham players Michail Antonio, Ryan Fredericks, Aaron Cresswell and Darren Randolph
We dont need Wilson or brooks ! eze a left and right back and a keeper first. Then sell lanzini wilshere yarmo cresswell fred and as Grady coming back we are starting to become a force.
Defence is the priority although tbh right back play Johnson every game we can, great defender who will get better, if we could get a top quality left back Antonee Robinson looks decent, CB I think we are ok if we keep Balbuena as Rice can also slot in, I think Diop is better left sided than right sided and potentially Winston Reid if he could stay fit long enough.Brooks is top quality, Eze can fill that slot also but would definitely go all out to sign Watkins he will be worth 80 – 100 million once he has proved himself in the PL maybe even more. Whoever we sign needs to have pace there are a lot of our players that aren’t quick enough now, Yarmo, Wilshere, Noble, Lanzini, Cresswell, Haller spring to mind.
Reid will never replay for us again. Don’t delude yourself.
Wilson a no for me, too injury prone but David brooks is someone i would take at a heartbeat.
