Nice and perfect move, pray and hope it materialize though.
Westham is a modest club in a competitive league like the EPL… They are also playing in Europe next season so they will be needing a bigger squad…. They also struggled to field a steady number 9 last season, sometimes playing anthonio as a false 9….Paul onuachu will get playing time at westham if he stays fit through out the season just like this season at genk considering all this factors stated above.
West Ham are a long ball team, so they would be a nice fit for each other..
