“The goal is to move this summer” – West Ham and Crystal Palace target wants transfer

Östersund forward Saman Ghoddos has told the Swedish media his plan is to get a move in the summer transfer window.

The Iran international has in recent weeks been linked with a move to West Ham United and Crystal Palace.

Speaking to Fotbolldirekt, Ghoddos was asked about his future with OFK, following links with Premier League clubs: “The goal is to move this summer. It’s the best window, but there’s no stress either. What happens, happens.”

Last month we covered reports that West Ham sent a scout to the game between Arsenal and OFK, with the intention to get a lowdown on Ghoddos.

It was well documented West Ham were keen to bring in a forward during the last transfer window after Andre Ayew and Diafra Sakho left the club, and Ghoddos could be an option in the next window.

In the past week there have been reports in the British media Crystal Palace are also interested in the Swedish born player.

Crystal Palace recruited Scandinavian players in the last window, and could again do likewise in the summer.
