Niclas Fullkrug may already be done at West Ham United amid new loan development

Niclas Fullkrug could fear for his future at the London Stadium as West Ham consider signing a new striker on loan.

The Germany international has struggled to make a positive impact in East London as injuries have hampered his start to life in the Premier League.

The 31-year-old signed in the summer and that was met with plenty of fanfare, but even with a goal against Leicester City, that excitement has now waned slightly.

There is now a chance that Julen Lopetegui could move the former Borussia Dortmund striker on if a new striker comes in during the January window.

The Irons have been given the green light to sign the France international from Paris Saint-Germain after a lack of form in Ligue 1, according to Caught Offside.

The France international is available for a loan switch in the winter window given that he is out of Luis Enrique's plans in the French capital.

Although things haven't gone well for the 26-year-old at the Parc des Princes, there is no doubt that he could prove to be a success in East London.

The ex-Eintracht Frankfurt is a physical presence and also possesses pace, which could provide a point of difference in the Hammers' squad.

If the Frenchman was to come in on loan, it is likely that he would have to be the starting striker every week under Lopetegui.

This could see the German make a move away from the Irons just months after joining, potentially putting a disappointing spell to an end.
