West Ham United fans have taken to social networking site Twitter to give their reaction to speculation linking the club with a move for Borussia Dortmund star Andriy Yarmolenko.

According to Sky Sports, West Ham are interested in signing Yarmolenko from Dortmund in the summer transfer window.

It has been reported that the Premier League club have made an offer of £17.5 million for the 28-year-old, who can operate as a winger or as a forward.

The Ukraine international winger made 13 starts and five substitute appearances in the Bundesliga during the 2017-18 campaign, scoring three goals and providing two assists in the process, according to WhoScored.

Yarmelenko reminds me of Arnie when we was at Stoke. 1 brilliant game every 7 games.

Look how Arnie has adapted to life here. Hopefully Yarmolenko can do the same ⚒ https://t.co/ckRFzkoeZG

Yarmolenko has been highly regarded for years, and Dortmund fans are actually not happy he’s potentially leaving. He will be decent if it comes off.

Fernandes would be a next level signing though. He’s available for around £20-25m, and is probably a £40-50m player

Dunno why people are against yarmolenko, just cos he hasnt been incredible at dortmund doesnt mean he aint good enough, his record for dynamo kyiev is amazing, dont care if it was ukrainian league, costa, marlos, bernard, taison all cant match those numbers

I don’t think Yarmolenko would be bad. Just hope he isn’t our ‘marquee signing’

Will be good for us. For £17m as well is a bargain.

I would take Yarmolenko, good player. He shouldn’t be our marquee signing and I think he won’t be, but he’s still a decent signing. #WHUFC #COYI
