“West Ham’s SHOCKING Plan to RESURRECT Former Aston Villa Flop for Premier League GLORY!”
West Ham Target Familiar Face in Renewed Bid to End Striker Struggles This Summer
Niclas Fullkrug’s underwhelming performances last season led West Ham to bring in Evan Ferguson on loan.
However, Ferguson also failed to make an impression, leaving the club back at square one in their search for a reliable striker.
Despite past setbacks, club officials remain optimistic that this summer will bring the right addition to their squad.
Their renewed confidence stems from targeting a player who previously impressed in the Premier League.
West Ham interested in loan move for Jhon Duran
According to TEAMtalk, West Ham are among several clubs interested in signing Jhon Duran on loan. The Al-Nassr forward could be on the move again after a challenging stint in Saudi Arabia.
Duran joined Al-Nassr from Aston Villa in January, but he has struggled to settle in his new surroundings. Now, he is eyeing a return to the Premier League ahead of the 2025–26 campaign.
Al-Nassr have reportedly been disappointed with Duran’s adaptation and performances, making them open to loaning him out. West Ham are keen to bring him in, but face competition from five other Premier League sides.
Despite his adjustment issues, Duran managed to score 12 goals in the second half of the season in Saudi Arabia, showcasing his potential.
The Hammers had previously attempted to sign Duran before his move to Al-Nassr but were unable to close a deal.
With another opportunity now on the table, West Ham are expected to make a strong push to land the 21-year-old striker during this summer’s transfer window, determined not to miss out a second time.
