“West Ham’s Jaw-Dropping Deal to Snag Premier League’s Hottest Striker with Insane Incentive Bonanza!”

West Ham United are in the market for a new striker following the departures of Michail Antonio and Danny Ings, whose contracts expired at the end of last season.

Callum Wilson has recently emerged as a serious target, with the 33-year-old now a free agent after leaving Newcastle United.

While the links to Wilson have not excited the fanbase, a key detail in his proposed contract may make the move more acceptable.

Incentive-Based Deal on the Table

Despite some high-profile exits, West Ham don’t appear to be cash-strapped this summer.

The club has likely freed up significant wages, and Mohammed Kudus’ £55 million transfer to Tottenham should help with Profit and Sustainability Rules.

However, new manager Graham Potter has only seen two additions to his squad so far: El Hadji Malick Diouf for £19 million and free agent Kyle Walker-Peters.

The lack of major spending has only intensified concerns that owner David Sullivan is being overly cautious.

Wilson’s recent form raises eyebrows. He managed just one goal for Newcastle last season and has struggled with injuries in recent years.

But, as reported by Mail Online (25 July), West Ham are attempting to mitigate the risk by negotiating a performance-based contract.

The proposed deal would include a modest base salary, with most earnings tied to appearances and goals.

This would allow the Hammers to avoid a costly commitment if Wilson’s injury issues persist.

A Signing Worth Considering

While doubts remain, Wilson’s Premier League pedigree can’t be ignored. Two seasons ago, he netted 18 league goals and proved his quality.

His experience could also be beneficial for young talent like Callum Marshall.

Though fans may need convincing, the structured contract could change perspectives on the potential signing.
