SHOCKING EXCLUSIVE: West Ham Ready to SPLASH INSANE CASH on ‘UTTERLY UNSTOPPABLE’ Goal Machine in January – You Won’t Believe Who’s Getting DUMPED to Make It Happen!
West Ham United are intensifying their pursuit of Norwich City striker Josh Sargent ahead of the January transfer window, according to information relayed to GIVEMESPORT.
Manager Nuno Espirito Santo has already held discussions with club chairman David Sullivan, and Sargent is seen as an ideal fit for the profile they want to bring in next month.
The Hammers are prioritising a physically strong centre-forward who is already accustomed to English football, whether through Premier League or Championship experience.
Sargent meets all those criteria and has been monitored closely by the club for some time.
West Ham Pushing for Sargent Deal
Norwich value the 25-year-old American at around £17.5 million, and they are well aware of West Ham’s interest.
The London club are now preparing to advance their pursuit with a formal offer in the new year.
Although West Ham have enjoyed an improvement in form, they remain in the relegation zone and are two points from safety.
Sargent is currently sidelined with an injury, but it is not considered serious, and he remains one of several forward options being explored as the Hammers shape their January strategy.
Signing a new striker is a key priority, particularly with 34-year-old Callum Wilson currently leading the line.
Meanwhile, Niclas Fullkrug is pushing for an exit, and his agent has already gone public to confirm his desire to leave.
Wolfsburg have expressed interest in the German striker, but West Ham will only sanction a move if they secure a suitable replacement or receive an offer that helps recoup part of the £27.5 million they spent on him just 18 months ago.
Need for a Forward with English Football Experience
Fullkrug has struggled to make an impact, scoring only three goals since joining in the summer of 2024.
West Ham have also previously failed with striker signings who lacked English football experience, such as Gianluca Scamacca and Sebastien Haller.
This has influenced their current strategy, pushing them towards a forward who has already proven himself in England.
Sargent, labelled by some as “unstoppable,” burst into the new campaign with an excellent run of form, scoring six times before September.
Although he has added only one more goal since, he is still regarded as a strong option who could help West Ham climb out of trouble.
The Hammers face in-form Aston Villa at home this weekend, having suffered just one defeat in their last six matches.
They then travel to Manchester City before entering the busy Christmas schedule.
