“West Ham’s DESPERATE £12M Fight for SENSATIONAL Star Will Leave You Speechless as Potter’s EPIC Rebuild Shocks the Premier League!”
West Ham Eye Liverpool Starlet Ben Doak Amid Summer Transfer Interest
Following the departure of Mohammed Kudus, West Ham currently have just three recognised wide options in Jarrod Bowen, Crysencio Summerville, and Luis Guilherme.
However, Summerville is recovering from a serious injury suffered last season, while Guilherme is still in the early stages of his development.
Maxwel Cornet is another option, though manager Graham Potter appears unconvinced, having sent him out on loan in January.
As a result, the Hammers are reportedly looking to strengthen their options on the flanks.
According to journalist David Lynch via X, West Ham are interested in signing Ben Doak and may step up efforts to secure the 19-year-old winger before the summer window closes.
Signing Doak won’t be easy, though. Wolverhampton Wanderers are also monitoring his situation, while both Ipswich Town and Crystal Palace showed interest in January, with the latter two submitting a £20 million bid that Liverpool turned down.
Doak spent last season on loan at Middlesbrough, where he impressed with three goals and seven assists in the Championship.
Valued at around £12 million by Transfermarkt, Doak is now entering the final year of his Liverpool contract, meaning the club could consider selling him to avoid losing him for free next summer.
The Scottish winger is primarily a right-footed right-winger but is capable with both feet.
Known for his speed, dribbling ability, and precise crossing, he thrives in tight spaces and could offer West Ham an exciting attacking option for the future.
He has also featured in three of Liverpool’s pre-season matches this summer and has impressed, further boosting his stock.
If West Ham are able to win the race for his signature, it could prove to be a smart long-term investment.
Elsewhere, West Ham have already added striker Callum Wilson and defender El Hadji Malick Diouf to their squad this summer.
They are also reportedly working on a deal for goalkeeper John Victor as they look to bolster their options in goal.
Whether they can beat the competition and land Doak remains to be seen, but the club’s interest signals clear intent to strengthen out wide.
