West Ham Prepare January Bid for Wolves Striker Jørgen Strand Larsen

Nuno Espírito Santo has made a centre-forward his top target to bolster survival hopes.

Overview

  • The Guardian reports West Ham are preparing an opening offer for the Norway international in the January window.
  • Wolves are said to value Strand Larsen at about £40m, presenting a significant obstacle to an agreement.
  • The 25-year-old scored 14 league goals last season but has three in the Premier League this term for a side battling at the bottom.
  • West Ham are reported to be set to loan Niclas Füllkrug to Milan, increasing the urgency to add a striker.
  • Alternative forwards under consideration include Ellis Simms, Haji Wright and Rafiu Durosinmi, while a loan move for Nathan Aké was turned down by the player.
