West Ham should launch a good offer to get Werder Bremen’s star for the next season.

The German press recently linked Max Kruse as a potential West Ham target. According to Sports Bild, the Irons could offer £10 million for the 29 years old move to East London. However, the German club will not let him go easily. Whether or not the Germans will accept selling him to the Hammers or not, the London club needs to add a good striker to their squad and Kruse could be a perfect fit for them.

If you read Barren Rouen’s article, perhaps you might agree with his vision that West Ham should sign Max Kruse in this summer. I picked three reasons which confirm why he needs move to East-London.

Andy Carroll’s Injury Record

Andy Carroll is our best striker at the moment. I shouldn’t need to remind that he only scored seven goals and only started 15 times last season. However, his rating is 7.45 per WhoScored, that’s something good.

Carroll, when starting with the first squad, could help the team make some goal, but the problem was his injuries. He didn’t start 20 games of the 38 Premier League overall matches. After repeatedly disappearing in more than one season with West Ham, he would be thought to find another club. The British press recently reported the Hammers striker as a possible Newcastle target.

These injuries have been a massive problem for the Irons, and they could not let it happen again. If he does not go, negotiate this summer. They should look to another forward and this would be a perfect time to searching at others domestic leagues like Bundesliga, Serie A or La Liga.
