WEST HAM ON THE VERGE OF SMASHING THEIR TRANSFER RECORD WITH ABSOLUTE COLOSSUS STRIKER!! “Done Deal Imminent” – Top Journalist Drops BOMBSHELL That Has Hammers Fans LOSING THEIR MINDS
West Ham appear to be closing in on the powerful, pacey striker they’ve long needed, following an encouraging new update on Promise David.
Nuno Espirito Santo made it clear within days of arriving at West Ham that signing a striker in January was essential.
After watching Niclas Fullkrug lead the line in his first match against Everton, he quickly reached the same conclusion supporters have held for years: the club desperately needs a young, fast and powerful centre-forward.
Fullkrug has been another ageing, injury-prone gamble that hasn’t paid off.
Callum Wilson, though also older and with fitness concerns, has proven a valuable short-term addition and played a key role in recent performances.
Still, frustration among fans stemmed from the club failing to pair Wilson with a younger long-term option in the summer.
Tim Steidten had the chance to sign Jhon Duran but instead opted to spend his budget on Fullkrug and Luis Guilherme.
With Danny Ings and Michail Antonio departing and Evan Ferguson’s loan cut short, the Hammers have been left with Fullkrug, Wilson and youngster Callum Marshall as their only striking options.
With Fullkrug expected to return to Serie A or Germany, Nuno’s push for reinforcements is no surprise.
West Ham have been linked with a long list of strikers — including Chris Wood, Joshua Zirkzee, Endrick, Franculino Dju, Gabriel Jesus and Santiago Gimenez.
However, one name stands out among the realistic targets: Promise David.
Reports now claim West Ham are closing in on an agreement to sign the 6ft 5in Canadian striker from Union Saint-Gilloise.
TEAMtalk’s Fraser Fletcher states the club have already made contact, with negotiations progressing as the transfer window approaches.
After two windows of unsuccessful striker hunts and managerial upheaval, sources suggest genuine progress at last.
The club is ready to reinvest funds generated from Fullkrug’s likely sale into securing David, who fits the exact profile Nuno wants: strong, quick, dominant in the air and capable of playing as a lone forward.
His record of 62 goals across just over three seasons highlights his potential impact.
Nuno believes David’s hold-up play and physical presence would provide a focal point to unleash Jarrod Bowen, Crysencio Summerville and Lucas Paquetá — signalling a major step toward solving West Ham’s long-standing striker problem.
