West Ham United will not pursue a deal for 25-year-old Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Jorgen Strand Larsen in the winter transfer window.

According to a report by Football Insider, Jorgen Strand Larsen is no longer the subject of interest from West Ham United. The Hammers are not keen on reinforcing their offensive unit by signing a striker in the winter transfer window anymore after securing the services of Pablo and Valentin Castellanos.

So, the 25-year-old Wolverhampton Wanderers forward is no longer a target for the East London outfit. The Black Country outfit will not stand in Strand Larsen’s way, and they have slapped a price tag of £40 million on him. However, it is unclear where the Halden native will land in the winter transfer window after West Ham’s decision.

How has Jorgen Strand Larsen fared in the Premier League?

Jorgen Strand Larsen has endured a topsy-turvy ride since joining Wolverhampton Wanderers from Celta Vigo. The Black Country outfit initially signed the 25-year-old on loan in July 2024 before completing a permanent move 12 months later. The player was excellent in his debut season with the Premier League club, but he has not been at his best this term.

The Norwegian international has managed only three goals and one assist in 22 appearances in all competitions thus far in the 2025/26 season. However, Strand Larsen’s stock remains high, as widespread reports have linked him with several well-known clubs. However, West Ham United will not be among the prospective suitors vying for his signature in the winter transfer window.

What next?

Recent reports have linked Jorgen Strand Larsen with West Ham United. The Hammers have been keen on bolstering their offensive unit by signing a striker in the winter transfer window. However, with Pablo and Valentin Castellanos joining West Ham earlier this week, they do not need another striker.

Recent reports have suggested that the East London outfit may part ways with Callum Wilson only six months after securing his services in a Bosman move this past summer. However, after signing two strikers in the ongoing transfer window, West Ham will not need another centre-forward.

Meanwhile, there may be no shortage of suitors pursuing Strand Larsen, as recent reports have linked him with several Premier League clubs. It will be interesting to see what the future holds for the 25-year-old Norwegian international.
