West Ham eye a move for Blackburn youngster Tyrhys Dolan – report
West Ham is eyeing a move for Blackburn Rovers youngster Tyrhys Dolan, according to reports by 90min.
The winger has been involved in seven goals in 30 Championship games this season, establishing himself in Tony Mowbray’s team.
Brighton are said to be the favourites to sign the 20-year-old, but the Hammers are keeping tabs on him, nonetheless.
Tottenham Hotspur and Fulham are also monitoring Dolan whose contract at Ewood Park will expire in 2024.
Future star
This would be a huge steal if the Irons could hijack a move for the England youth international.
Dolan burst onto the scene last year with Blackburn, but this season has seen the dynamo take his game to another level.
The winger must be a player of real quality with several Premier League clubs keen to add him to their ranks.
He has great versatility, being able to play anywhere in the attack as well in midfield which David Moyes will be overjoyed to hear.
There is only one destination for him if he wants to progress into a great player and that is West Ham. They have nurtured many youngsters into world-beaters with countless examples throughout the years.
Brighton isn’t quite on the level as the Hammers and Tottenham are a mess of a club where many a player has been left to rot so the former Preston North End youth prospect needs to be careful who he picks.
This is a really exciting potential signing with Dolan possessing all the skills to be a brilliant player.
