West Ham ‘lining’ up Man Utd transfer swoop with Everton also linked

West Ham are reportedly keen on signing Manchester United winger Amad Diallo on loan next season. The youngster appears to be a man in-demand ahead of the transfer window.

As detailed in a report by the Northern Echo, the Hammers are ‘lining up’ a swoop for the attacker. However, fellow Premier League sides Everton and Burnley are also interested.

West Ham could see the 20-year-old as someone who would freshen up their options at the top end of the pitch. The 20-year-old spent this past campaign with Sunderland and helped the Black Cats reach the Championship play-offs against the odds under Tony Mowbray.

He was given the green light to join the Black Cats on a temporary basis last summer to get some more experience under his belt. The Ivory Coast international, who has four caps under his belt to date, was a hit at the Stadium of Light and scored 14 goals in 42 games.

Manchester United have a big decision to make on what to do with Diallo next. They signed him from Atalanta in 2021 and he has since played nine times for their first-team. He also had a stint in Scotland at Rangers to help boost his development before Sunderland came calling last year.

In other West Ham news, they have been linked with Strasbourg striker Habib Diallo again. According to reporter Alan Nixon, they like the Ligue 1 man along with Burnley. He has found the net 41 times in 100 outings for his current club.
