West Ham make ‘formal offer’ of ‘more than €35m’ to sign 25G+10A player

West Ham United are one of the clubs to have looked at Girona star Artem Dovbyk for this summer.

That’s according to Saturday’s edition of AS, who say West Ham have made an offer worth ‘more than €35m’ to sign the striker.

The Ukraine international impressed for the La Liga side last season, scoring 25 goals and registering 10 assists from 41 games.

Dovbyk played a vital role in helping Girona qualify for the Champions League, and his fine displays have attracted interest from other clubs, including West Ham, Napoli, Atlético Madrid and from Saudi Arabia.

Los Rojiblancos have made a €25m offer, which didn’t please their Spanish rivals. As well as Atlético, the 27-year-old has received ‘formal offers’ from Julen Lopetegui’s side and the Naples club.

The Hammers and Napoli proposed more than €35m, say AS, but the option of moving to England or Italy doesn’t seduce Dovbyk.

He and his family are happy with their life in Spain, and the player can fulfil his dream of playing in the Champions League at Girona. Both the Hammers and the Serie A side have failed to qualify for Europe next season.

Therefore, Dovbyk has rejected offers from West Ham and other clubs in order to continue at the Spanish side.
