West Ham United are part of the running in the race for Union Saint-Gilliose striker Promise David, as Nuno Espirito Santo wants a new forward.

According to Ekrem Konur, Union Saint-Gilloise striker Promise David is firmly on the radars of a few clubs, including West Ham United. The London outfit are eager to land a new centre-forward to solve a peculiar goalscoring problem, with the Canadian international now seen as a viable target.

West Ham United have some obvious problems in the front line, as Nuno Espirito Santo continued to struggle to find goals with regularity. The Portuguese boss took over from Graham Potter earlier this season in the hope of reviving their hope for survival after a disastrous start, with some positive signs visible to fans.

Espirito Santo wants to solidify the team, especially the front line, with the Portuguese boss eager to find new players in the market to improve the attack. A central striker is firmly on their agenda, as they had previously tried exploring a deal for Real Madrid outcast Endrick on loan, but without any success.

Irish hero Troy Parrott is another name on their list, with the AZ Alkmaar star already attracting plenty of English suitors ahead of January. Juventus’ Dusan Vlahovic is also a player of interest, but considering the kind of teams that will be vying for the Serbian, it’s difficult to envisage the Hammers signing him.

There are many more names on their list, as West Ham are ready to offload Niclas Fullkrug in January, meaning the new arrival is likely to replace the German international. The latest name to be linked with West Ham is Union Saint-Gilloise striker Promise David, with the 24-year-old striker already impressing with his performances in Belgium.

West Ham in the race for Promise David

David has been a good presence in front of the goal for Union Saint-Gilloise, with the 24-year-old striker scoring 9 goals in 20 appearances across all competitions for the Belgian club. The prospect of joining a Premier League side could be the way West Ham could entice the Canadian international to the London Stadium.

West Ham are not alone in the race as Stuttgart, Brighton and LOSC Lille are all vying for the 24-year-old striker. Union Saint-Gilloise will demand a significant fee for the Canadian, considering David is tied to the club until 2029.
