The striker is reportedly inching ever closer to joining West Ham United.
West Ham have been linked with a big money move for Celta Vigo hitman Maxi Gomez, with Sky Sports reporting that he is nearing a £43.2 million switch to east London, and should Manuel Pellegrini be successful in his pursuit of the Argentine, the Hammers could have a devastating attacking line-up.
The 22-year-old has been in fine form in Spain this season, chalking up nine goals and five assists in 19 La Liga outings thus far.
Gomez is a real live-wire, and his electric pace combined with a ruthless nature in front of goal could very well make West Ham a devastating force over the next few years.
With Felipe Anderson out on the left, Robert Snodgrass or Andriy Yarmolenko on the right, and Marko Arnautovic partnering the Uruguay international through the middle, the east London outfit really could be an awesome force.
Hammers fans have been treated to some spectacular talents throughout the years, including Paolo Di Canio and Dimitri Payet, but never before have they had an entire attacking line-up as potentially scintillating as the one mentioned above.
Gomez would surely link up excellently with his fellow South American Felipe Anderson, and his pace and power through the middle would prove West Ham with an entirely different option.
£43.2 million is an awful lot of money, but Gomez has absolutely everything, and he would be a sensational addition for the Hammers.
He is such a talent that he could, in fact, help transform West Ham into genuine challengers for the top four over the next few years.
And with links to the likes of Maxi Gomez, these must be exciting times to be a Hammers fan.
