West Ham United want to sign Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial from Manchester United during the January transfer window.
West Ham wanted Rashford or Martial on loan, but were unable to complete a deal six months ago.
However, with the Red Devils set to snap up Romelu Lukaku, they may have more luck if they made a repeat offer now.
Lukaku’s arrival at United has plunged Rashford’s and Martial’s first-team chances into further doubt, with the Everton man surely likely to become Mourinho’s first choice up-front.
Rashford and Martial may now be eager for regular game time, and West Ham could promise them that.
West Ham have been frustrated in their search for a new striker all summer so far, with a new front man at the top of Slaven Bilic’s transfer wishlist.
Of course, both Martial and Rashford would be very ambitious targets for the Hammers – but they had them on their radar only six months ago.
And there would be no harm in checking whether United would be prepared to do a deal, as Martial and Rashford would have the potential to light up the Olympic Stadium, if they did join West Ham.
