Former Fulham, Lyon and Celtic striker Moussa Dembélé has been offered to West Ham by agents.

The 28-year-old currently plays for Saudi Pro League club Al-Ettifaq could be allowed to leave this January.

Dembélé signed for Fulham at the age of 16 from Paris Saint-Germain breaking through to senior team in 2013.

He joined Celtic on a free transfer in 2016 later joining Lyon for £18.6m in 2018.

Dembele was caught winking on camera after he was brought down by Aaron Cresswell in the Europa League quarter-final first leg against Lyon

The West Ham left back was sent off after the referee deemed him to be denying a goalscoring opportunity and the Frenchman gave a wink much to the fury of West Ham fans.

Dembele was loaned out to Atlético Madrid in 2021 but left Celtic on a free transfer in 2023 to join the Saudi Pro League.

Claret and Hugh understand that West Ham are not convinced that Dembele is the kind of player they need this winter.

    No thanks let’s get a young hungry striker or at least one that puts some effort in and will run the channels, someone like Watkins.

  • tony Anning says:

    Well,West Ham need someone who can score goals

  • MK Hammer says:

    Greatest hits news is reporting WH have bid £57m on Duran. Can that be confirmed with your sources?

  • Chunk says:

    Dont like this idea but can see a bit of sense of it. Imo, a loan to end of the season and that’s it. No obligation or anything.
    I’m seeing reports elsewhere they we have bid around £67m for Duran. More like it although could’ve saved about £20m in the summer if they stumped up the rest then. Duran and (if Ipswich go down,) Delap for me please.

  • Charlie says:

    No thanks. I am surprised it is even being considered. Fans will never forget that incident. It may have cost us the eufa Cup that year

  • Phil Baker says:

    And I thought that Westham had just sacked the winker of Westham .

  • Whippethammer says:

    God no.

  • Terry says:

    Beggar’s can’t be choosers I suppose but let’s just keep the bowl handy with this type of player being suggested
