Hammers linked with Polish striker

West Ham are being linked with Polish international striker Arkadiusz Milik.
With the transfer window opening on July 27 Italian website TuttoMercatoWeb, claim the Irons are  ‘important admirers’ of the 26-year-old.
But in quoting a price of €40 million for the Napoli hit man,  the story may just be as wayward as the likely price the player is going to command following the Covid 19 hit summer.

The story adds the striker ‘will leave’ Napoli this summer, and  that’s the price his club have put on his head,

Unsurprisingly the website claims that no offer has yet arrived on chairman Aurelio de Laurentiis’ desk for a player who has scored 13 goals at Serie A and Champions League level this term.

The added problem in getting such a fee is that his contract runs out next season and he looks a more likely target for one of the top six who can offer him European football.
Thus far there have been no talks about him resigning for Napoli but a Hammers move would be an extraordinary move should it happen.
