Emmanuel Dennis would be cracking signing for West Ham in the summer
Irrespective of where West Ham finish this season, David Moyes must look to bring in new faces in the summer transfer window.
With Daniel Kretinsky on board, Moyes should be backed in the market. In fact, according to The Times, one of the major reasons West Ham sought external investment this year is to attract better players.
With this in mind, the Hammers must move for Emmanuel Dennis from Watford this summer.
According to reports from The Athletic, West Ham are heavily interested in the Nigerian forward who is almost certain to leave the club, if they get relegated.
Watford and Norwich City are almost certain to drop down to the Championship unless they make a miraculous escape.
Bolstering the forward line should be a top priority for Moyes. The likes of Manuel Lanzini and Said Benrahma need to be shipped out, although both of them have done well in patches.
Lanzini has a contract at the club till 2023, and although the Hammers can extend his deal, it’s time they must offload him and free up the space for new additions.
Similarly, Benrahma came with loads of promise, but he has cut a frustrating figure at the club.
Dennis has managed 10 goals and five assists this season in 30 Premier League games for Watford.
With better quality of players around, the technically gifted player can be expected to get even better.
He can play on both the wings and has played as a striker as well. Despite his impressive scoring numbers, he puts in a lot of defensive shifts – an archetypal modern-day forward.
He would be available between £20-30m, and the Hammers must show ambition in the market to sign him.
Signing players from relegated clubs can often backfire but given the quality of the player, Moyes can secure a transfer jackpot by landing him in the summer.
