West Ham attacker reportedly wanted in summer by Premier League rivals

West Ham attacker Jarrod Bowen is reportedly on Newcastle United’s radar. The 26-year-old has been on the Toon Army’s wish list in the past and could emerge as a target for them again this summer.

The England international, who has four caps under his belt for his country to date, is currently looking to help David Moyes’ side stay in the Premier League. They could face a battle to keep hold of him if they were to drop into the Championship.

According to a report by talkSPORT, he is ‘wanted’ by Newcastle ahead of the next campaign and they may well be able to offer him Champions League football with the way things are going for them. Their manager Eddie Howe is said to be a ‘long-term admirer’ of the former Hereford man.

The North East outfit are believed to have missed out on landing Bowen back in January 2020 when West Ham won the race to sign him from Hull City. Prior to his switch to the London Stadium, he was a hit with the Tigers and scored 54 goals in 131 games in all competitions during his time in East Yorkshire.

He has since carried on that form at West Ham over recent years and has chipped in with 37 goals in 143 matches altogether. His contract with the Hammers expires in June 2025.
