So, if reports are to be believed, West Ham have fallen at the final hurdle once again in their hunt for a striker. Who could be next on the club’s radar after club sources point to multiple bids lodged for other strikers

Olivier Giroud

This signing seems to divide West Ham fans whenever mentioned, but I believe that Giroud would be a good addition to the team. We saw him and Payet link up very nicely at Euro 2016 and he would add more mobility than Andy Carroll whilst still keeping the aerial threat. Right now he’s not available, but if Arsenal sign a big striker we could see him looking to move within the Premier League.
