Report: Irons linked to £15m striker

|

4651779West Ham are again being linked with a move for Burnley goal machine Andre Gray despite him having sent only three months at Turf Moor.

Both Everton and Aston Villa are also believed to be tracking the player following his stunning nine goals from 11 games for the Clarets.

The Irons considered a move for the 24 year-old whilst he was at Brentford before he joined the Sean Dyche managed Championship outfit.

Gray joined the Clarets in a £9m deal but his price will have now rocketed to around £15 million should the northern outfit decide to sell.

However, the Irons would have to wait until the summer should they choose to move as Gray has played for both Brentford and his new club this season and FIFA rules state they can only play for two in any given season.

    Maybe Gray can sit next to Antonio,if we want to buy a forward who can do it in the premier go for Calum Wilson spend the money on young talent that would improve the team,
    Are there no good right backs in the championship,there is already a great CH Burke,
    A great Midfielder Poyet and a great Winger Samulsun,pity they don’t play for us ?
    Sorry if my Granma is bad Granddad.
