West Ham United transfer news as update emerges on striker Vangelis Pavlidis
PSV striker Vangelis Pavlidis who has been watched by West Ham, Fulham and Crystal Palace is likely to seal a summer transfer, according to HITC.
The news outlet reported on 30 May that the Greece international, who scored 33 goals in all competitions in 2023/24, has a number of admirers.
The Hammers even considered making a move for the 25-year-old hitman in the January transfer window.
Vangelis Pavlidis would be a solid addition for West Ham
The Hammers are in search of a proven goal scorer this summer to address their need for a consistent attacking presence.
The 34-year-old Michail Antonio, while a club legend, has struggled with injuries and consistency, making the acquisition of a reliable forward a priority for the club.
Pavlidis has demonstrated his goal-scoring prowess with an impressive tally of 33 goals in all competitions and would be an ideal signing for the club.
Given Antonio’s age and injury history, Pavlidis could provide much-needed support to West Ham’s attack.
His addition to the squad would not only share the goal-scoring burden with Jarrod Bowen but also bring a fresh dynamic to the Irons’ attack.
As the Hammers look to bolster their squad for the upcoming season under Julen Lopetegui, Pavlidis’s proven track record makes him an attractive option to address their goal-scoring needs.
