West Ham Prepare January Move as Premier League Clubs Circle AZ Striker Troy Parrott

AZ's reluctance to sell midseason under a 2029 contract leaves suitors weighing January bids against waiting.

Overview

  • West Ham are planning a January approach for Parrott, according to Ben Jacobs, with the Hammers prioritising a frontline addition.
  • Leeds United, Everton and Crystal Palace have made enquiries, per multiple reports, while Fulham have also been linked.
  • AZ are reported to be unwilling to sanction a January sale and the player is not pushing for a return to England.
  • Reported valuations vary, with figures around £26m cited in some coverage and a £31m or €30m-plus price mentioned elsewhere.
  • Interest follows Parrott’s prolific run, including five goals in two games for Ireland and 13 goals in 14 matches for AZ this season; Spurs retain a 20% sell-on but no buy-back.
