West Ham Cool Pursuit of Strand Larsen as Wolves Hold Out for £40m, Turn to Gil Vicente’s Pablo

Wolves' £40m valuation plus wage demands have deterred a bid.

Overview

  • After signaling an opening offer earlier this week, West Ham developed cold feet over the finances around Jørgen Strand Larsen, according to the latest reporting.
  • Talks are advanced for 21-year-old Pablo, with Gil Vicente expected to seek roughly €20m (£17.5m) for the Brazilian forward.
  • Wolves are open to offers for the Norway striker, who signed a contract to 2030, though his output has dipped this season.
  • Crystal Palace are also weighing a January move for Strand Larsen, adding competition from within the Premier League.
  • With Niclas Füllkrug heading to AC Milan on loan, West Ham are short at centre-forward and are surveying multiple options to bolster a relegation-threatened squad.
