West Ham still like Youssef En-Nesyri and are considering launching a new move to bring the Sevilla striker to London this summer.
The Hammers want a number of signings this summer but few will be quite as important as adding another striker.
Michail Antonio is still without real proven competition up top after West Ham sold Sebastien Haller to Ajax in January 2021.
This is now a fourth window of opportunity for West Ham to replace Haller and a new goalscorer simply has to be brought in now.
West Ham still like Youssef En-Nesyri
One name West Ham wanted to replace Haller was Sevilla hitman En-Nesyri.
The Hammers had a bid of £22.5million rising to £27million rejected for En-Nesyri in January 2021.
The Mirror now claim that West Ham are again keen on En-Nesyri and David Moyes is considering launching a new bid.
Sevilla are understood to be ready to cash in on En-Nesyri this summer after his form fell off a cliff.
En-Nesyri was outstanding in the 2020-21 season, racking up 24 goals in 52 games for Sevilla.
En-Nesyri’s form has really dipped though and he finished this past season with just five goals in 29 games.
The 25-year-old won’t command the £40million Sevilla wanted in January 2021, and may not even cost the £27million West Ham offered in the first place.
Moyes may feel that he can now get En-Nesyri back on track whilst paying a fraction of the fee Sevilla wanted just 18 months go.
West Ham are also targeting Rennes defender Nayef Aguerd, who is a Moroccan international teammate of En-Nesyri.
It may be appealing to get both of them on board at West Ham this summer, but whether En-Nesyri can rediscover his goalscoring touch remains to be seen.
