According to the report, it is asserted that the Hammers are seeking a new winger following the sale of Mohammed Kudus to Tottenham for a fee of £55 million.
The 27-year-old is a suitable candidate, having scored 20 goals and provided seven assists across all competitions for Atalanta in the previous season.
It remains uncertain whether Graham Potter and his team can finalize a deal for the former Fulham player.
In light of the rumors regarding a transfer to the London Stadium, Lookman has responded to the recent acquisition by the E20 club.
Kyle Walker-Peters was officially announced as a new signing in East London on July 20, and he took to Instagram to share his excitement about the move, stating: “My new home. Excited to be here, can’t wait to get started!”
Lookman, who played alongside the new Hammers player in the England youth teams, sent a congratulatory message after the transfer was completed, using a heart and a flexed bicep emoji in his comment.
Reportedly, Lookman is eager to return to English football after a successful period in Italy, and Potter needs a winger following Kudus’s departure.
Renowned commentator Ian Darke opines that the former Everton and Leicester player would serve as an excellent replacement for Kudus, describing him as “electric.”
