Tottenham Hotspur apparently want to sign West Ham United attacker Jarrod Bowen this summer.

According to a report from The Athletic, West Ham ace Jarrod Bowen is a transfer target for Tottenham in the summer transfer window.

It was recently claimed that Bowen, 26, is set to be a offered a new £120k-a-week contract in order to tempt him to commit his long-term future to West Ham.

The left-footed right winger is a key member of David Moyes‘s Hammers side.

Bowen joined West Ham from Hull City back in January 2020 for around £18 million (The Daily Mail). He has gone on to be an excellent player for us, bagging 40 goals and 31 assists in 158 games for the Hammers (Transfermarkt).

And it seems as though the 26-year-old’s fine form for West Ham has attracted attention from Spurs…

The Athletic reckon that Spurs want to bring the 26-year-old to North London.

For a publication as highly regarded as the Athletic, this really is a crazy claim. I don’t believe this will happen. The last transfer between the two clubs happened in 2011 when Scott Parker joined Tottenham from West Ham for around £5.5 million.

It’s an unwritten rule that the two London clubs do not do business with one another – certainly not now.

That said, it doesn’t surprise me that Tottenham might want to sign Jarrod Bowen.

Four Four Two describe Bowen as an ‘outstanding’ player.

The Hammers attacker is strong as an ox, fit as a fiddle and has a real eye for goal. Last season wasn’t his best campaign by any means, but he proved his class by finishing strongly and scoring the winning goal for us in the Europa Conference League final.

I’m pretty sure there is no need to worry with this one though.

As far as I’m concerned, we won’t ever see Bowen, or any other key West Ham player for that matter, playing in a Tottenham shirt.
