Alexandre Lacazette

I’m pretty sure this player was west hams ideal striker target at the start of the window, however it looks to be a mere pipe dream now as reliable club source ExWhuEmployee has stated that his club is proving almost impossible to negotiate with. Given that arsenal and other champions league clubs are also interested and the player has starred he’s not desperate to move I’m not sure it’s in the club’s power to get him. If he does go to Arsenal out may open up another striker target though…

Green St. Hammer Rating: 4/10

If Lacazette was to sign he’d be one of the major premier league signings of the past few years, however noises coming out of the club show that we do not believe he will join us, especially as he has Champions League football at his current club. I may be surprised, but it would require a massive turnaround to see him in a West Ham shirt next season.
