Poland striker Lukasz Teodorczyk has enjoyed a brilliant domestic campaign with Belgian side Anderlecht this season.

He has scored 20 league goals and 28 in all competitions this season. His impressive form didn’t go unnoticed. And several Premier League clubs are vying for his signature.

According to reports from RTBF, Liverpool, West Bromwich Albion, Sunderland, AC Milan and West Ham have shown an interest in the striker who would cost in the region of £12.65M (€15M).

West Ham should make a move for Teodorczyk

One of the major areas where West Ham need to invest heavily in the summer is the forward department.

Andy Carroll remains the club’s first choice striker but he hardly stays fit to play over 30 league games in a season.

The former Liverpool striker is a good player, but he has never played over 30 league games since moving to West Ham permanently in 2013.

The likes of Jonathan Calleri and Diafra Sakho have failed to make a strong impression, while young forward Ashley Fletcher probably is not ready to play week in week out.

The Polish striker has impressed in Europa League games this season, where he has scored five goals for the Belgian side. He would represent a smart signing and would add significant depth to the West Ham squad.
