ExWHUemployee: West Ham United could be ready to move for Watford winger Ismaila Sarr
West Ham United could be ready to move for Watford winger Ismaila Sarr this summer, according to ExWHUemployee.
The reliable Hammers source wrote on his Patreon on 12 July that the Hammers “could be prepared to step up their interest” in the Senegal international.
The 24-year-old is managed by the same agency as Flynn Downes who joined the Hammers this month from Swansea.

Sarr could be looking to leave the club after Watford suffered relegation to the Championship.
It looks like the Hammers are pretty serious about signing Sarr, and they could make a formal move in the coming weeks.
If they manage to pull off a deal for him, fans can get excited about the season. The club have made some brilliant signings so far, but David Moyes is looking for more.
It was expected that the Hammers would be busy in the summer transfer window, but it was important that they make quality additions as well.
Sarr has got Premier League experience and he is an exciting player to watch. Capable of playing on both flanks, last season he scored five goals and provided two assists in 22 games before he got injured.
If West Ham manage to get hold of Sarr, the club could look to offload one or two existing players. The likes of Said Benrahma and Nikola Vlasic could be offloaded.
