Napoli have made a bid for West Ham United attacking midfielder Pablo Fornals, according to The Express.

It has been reported that West Ham are ‘currently weighing up’ the offer from the Italian club for the Spain international.

West Ham United spell

Fornals joined West Ham from Spanish club Villarreal in the summer of 2019 for a transfer fee reported by BBC Sport to be worth £24 million.

According to WhoScored, the attacking midfielder made 24 starts and 12 substitute appearances in the Premier League for the Hammers last season, scoring two goals and providing five assists in the process.

The 24-year-old also made one start and one substitute appearance in the FA Cup for the London club, scoring one goal in the process, and he scored one goal in two EFL Cup ties as well, according to WhoScored.

West Ham United exit?

Fornals was not exactly great on his debut season in the Premier League, but the Spain international did relatively well.

Perhaps West Ham should give Fornals another chance and see if he can play consistently well next season before making a decision on his future.
