West Ham United is facing the possibility of missing out on a key transfer target as rivals Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur are making a strong push to sign a highly sought-after striker. The club is eager to bring in a new center-forward, especially with Michail Antonio sidelined due to injury and manager David Moyes hesitant to start Danny Ings. Winger Jarrod Bowen has been filling in up front with relative success, but it’s still not seen as a long-term solution.
West Ham has set their sights on Santiago Gimenez, who has been enjoying an impressive scoring record at Feyenoord. However, their pursuit of the 22-year-old has hit a snag as it’s reported that the player is more likely to be snatched up by either Arsenal or Tottenham in 2024 due to their ability to offer better deals. This could prompt West Ham to consider alternative options such as Stuttgart’s Serhou Guirassy or Chelsea’s Armando Broja.
With Arsenal intensifying their interest in Gimenez and Tottenham still seeking a proper replacement for Harry Kane, West Ham may face tough competition in the race to secure a top striker. This turn of events may force the club to explore other avenues for reinforcing their attacking options.
