West Ham target Noa Lang to be available for transfer in coming months

West Ham target and Club Brugge forward Noa Lang is reportedly set to be available for a transfer in the coming months.

According to Give Me Sport journalist Dean Jones [9 December], Leeds United are also in the hunt to secure the 23-year-old's services.

Lang was currently at the World Cup with the Netherlands in Qatar but made just one appearance for them with Louis van Gaal opting for other options in the final third.

Good move?

It's understood that the Hammers have been keeping tabs on the Dutch attacker for a while and they could finally make a move for him.

Earlier, it was unsure whether or not Brugge would be willing to sell him, but it now seems that he will be available.

West Ham no longer consider themselves as a small club when they pursue players and they absolutely should not as they're undoubtedly getting to be a big name in English football.

They signed Gianluca Scamacca and Lucas Paqueta even though clubs in the Champions League were linked with them which tells you that the pulling power has gone up so beating Leeds United will not be a problem.

Since Daniel Kretinsky's arrival, we've also seen an increase in spending and these are signs that the club is heading in the right direction.

Lang is a proven goal scorer who can play on either flank as well as down the middle and the Hammers must undoubtedly consider securing his services.
