West Ham fans are not keen on the signing of Jordan Hugill from Preston North End.

The Daily Mail have suggested that Hugill has emerged as a last-minute West Ham target.

The powerful forward was set to leave Preston North End to join Crystal Palace, but the Hammers are now in the hunt for the Championship striker.

Preston North End's Jordan Hugill during the Sky Bet Championship match between Preston North End and Birmingham City at Deepdale on January 20, 2018 in Preston, England.

West Ham have only made one addition so far this month, with Joao Mario arriving on loan from Inter Milan.

Hammers fans have been outraged by their lack of activity, but they are finding it hard to be enthused by the thought of Hugill arriving at the London Stadium.

Hugill has scored eight goals in 27 appearances for Preston so far this season, with his height and aerial ability posing a threat to defences at Championship level.

West Ham have already sold Diafra Sakho this month, which could mean that a new striker in on David Moyes’ radar today.
