West Ham considering move for 35-goal Super Eagles striker

Published: June 15, 2021

Allnigeriasoccer.com can exclusively report that Premier League side West Ham United are considering a move for Racing Genk goal poacher Paul Onuachu in the summer transfer window.

The Hammers are scouring the market for a new center forward following the sale of Sebastien Haller to Ajax Amsterdam and have the Nigeria international on their transfer wishlist.

Onuachu has been offered to several Premier League clubs but they have been put off by Racing Genk's asking price believed to be in the region of 30 million euros.

On top of that they have doubts as to whether he will quickly adapt to life in the English top-flight.

There are a couple of clubs in the German Bundesliga interested in signing the lanky striker while AC Milan are mulling over the idea of bringing him to provide competition for Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Onuachu made a splash last season by mustering 35 goals in 41 matches across all competitions and Genk are resigned to selling the Super Eagles star at the right price.
