Duvan Zapata is reportedly on West Ham United’s radar.
It has been reported that West Ham have decided to move for Zapata after missing out on Maxi Gomez, who is joining Valencia from Celta de Vigo.
West Ham manager Manuel Pellegrini is reported to have made the 28-year-old Colombia international striker his number one target in a £40 million deal.
Good signing for West Ham United?
Zapata did not have a great time at Napoli, but the 28-year-old striker did well during his loan spells at Udinese and Sampdoria.
The striker joined Sampdoria on a permanent contract in the summer of 2018 and immediately moved to Atalanta on a two-year loan deal.
According to WhoScored, the striker made 32 starts and five substitute appearances in Serie A for Atalanta last season, scoring 23 goals and providing seven assists in the process.
With Marko Arnautovic having left West Ham this summer, the London club do need to sign a replacement, and Zapata does fit the bill.
