Odsonne Edouard is perhaps the 500th striker West Ham have been linked with this month.
But it hasn’t stopped the West Ham supporters from getting excited at the links with the highly-rated Celtic hitman.
Speaking on the Transfer Window Podcast, journalist Ian McGarry has claimed that West Ham are interested in signing the 22-year-old.
Potential, age, strong goalscoring record, calmness in the final third, Edouard would be a fine addition to any Premier League team, nevermind West Ham.
The problem West Ham will face is that those in Glasgow will demand big-money for their player even though he and Celtic are experiencing a nightmare campaign.
West Ham have just lost half of their money on Sebastien Haller following his switch to Ajax.
So, it wouldn’t be a surprise if that would make those in the East London boardroom that bit hesitant to seriously push the boat out for Eduoard.
But it’s pretty clear that the West Ham fans would like the club to show their ambitions with the light-footed Frenchman.
