According to the Daily Star, West Ham United could sign three strikers this summer, as Manuel Pellegrini wants to make his side much more of an attacking threat next season.

West Ham are set to offload some of their fringe players in the summer, with Javier Hernandez, Andy Carroll and Lucas Perez all at risk of leaving the London Stadium.

If the trio do depart, Pellegrini wants West Ham to replace them all in the transfer market.

And that means that West Ham could be very busy looking for new number nines to sign this summer.

The Star claim that Pellegrini is planning to bring in as many as three forwards, as he looks to bolster West Ham’s attack.

Edin Dzeko is thought to be the Hammers’ first choice target, as reported by the Daily Express.

West Ham’s top scorer this season has been Felipe Anderson, who has nine goals in all competitions.
