West Ham are considering a move for Gambian sensation Adama Bojang. The 21-year-old forward had previously attracted attention from Manchester United, Manchester City and Chelsea in 2023 before eventually signing with French club Stade Reims.

Chelsea were prepared to part with around £1million for his services but refused to exceed that amount, leading to Reims securing a deal worth approximately £3m.

Bojang spent the previous season on loan at Swiss club Grasshoppers, where he netted six goals and provided two assists in 27 matches.

He is widely recognised as one of the top African talents of his generation and was also pursued by RB Leipzig, Eintracht Frankfurt and Hoffenheim prior to his move to France.

Earlier this week, West Ham entered discussions about a potential deal and while Reims are hesitant to let him go, they may be forced to sell their most valuable players following their demotion to Ligue 2.

However, West Ham aren't the only Premier League team showing interest, as Everton and Brentford have also expressed interest in the highly-rated forward.
