Overview
- West Ham have asked about Promise David’s availability as chief scout Max Hahn advances a striker shortlist for Nuno Espirito Santo.
- David, a 6'5" Canadian forward, has a prolific record for Union Saint-Gilloise with recent Champions League goals and a contract running to 2029.
- Recent reports indicate an estimated £17m valuation, with differing claims over Union Saint-Gilloise’s readiness to sell in January.
- Brighton are regarded as strong contenders due to existing ties with Union Saint-Gilloise, while other Premier League clubs are also reported to be tracking the player.
- The push for a new No 9 is sharpened by Niclas Fullkrug’s struggles and a potential January exit flagged by his agent, leaving West Ham wary of weakening their depth without a replacement.
