Transfer: West Ham line up bid for Super Eagles striker

0

West Ham United is preparing a move for Taiwo Awoniyi, a forward for Nottingham Forest.

According to The Sun, the Hammers want to sign the Nigerian international on loan for the remainder of the season.

A permanent transfer has also been discussed, but Nottingham Forest’s £20 million valuation could be a stumbling block.

West Ham are desperate for attacking reinforcements following injuries to forwards Michail Antonio, Jarrod Bowen, and Niclas Fullkrug.

Awoniyi could be interested in a move to West Ham after playing second fiddle to Chris Wood this season.

The 27-year-old has scored once for Forest in the Premier League this term.

DAILY POST recalls that the striker was linked with a move to West Ham last summer.
