Following the sale of Sébastien Haller to Ajax, the rumours regarding West Ham’s search for a new striker have gone into overdrive.
Every goalscorer and their socially distancing grandmother has been linked with a move to London Stadium these days, among which is Boulaye Dia.
The Stade de Reims striker has been in fine form for the Ligue 1 club, scoring 12 goals in 17 league games so far this season, and with an exit pass to leave should the right offer come in, he makes a lot of sense.
The price has been set at around €15m, but it was reported on Wednesday the Hammers were set to make their first offer at around €10m.
That, however, has yet to arrive, according to RMC Sport, who make it clear Reims haven’t received a ‘written offer’ from any club for their star forward.
We’ll have to wait and see what comes of this.
