Jarrod Bowen set for bumper new West Ham United contract after international call-up
West Ham are readying a new contract offer for Jarrod Bowen after becoming aware of growing interest from around the Premier League, according to 90min.
90min had revealed in December that the club were ready to open contract talks with the 25-year-old.
However, it has been revealed by the website on Wednesday [1 June] that the Hammers now recognise the importance of getting a deal done quickly.
Bowen has 18 goals and 11 assists in what has been a remarkable season for the winger.
Act fast
It is good to see the Hammers act fast in this situation.
Bowen’s current deal expires in the summer of 2025 and would’ve undoubtedly attracted interest had he entered the final two years of his deal.
If the winger extends his contract on better terms then it will put the club in a far stronger position should any bid for the 25-year-old emerge.
If David Moyes can tie the England winger down to a long contract it could encourage some of West Ham’s better players to commit their futures to the club.
Furthermore, building a team around Bowen could bring more high-quality players to the club.
It is a positive to see the club act quickly when it comes to the winger, if they had let his contract situation run past this summer then the Hammers could’ve faced losing their main man for a cut-price.
Bowen should repay the faith Moyes has shown in him and extend his stay at the London Stadium.
He is loved at the London Stadium and has the club and Moyes to thank for his immense development.
