Hammers boss David Moyes will be desperate to bring a new striker to the London Stadium this summer.

Gunners chief Mikel Arteta may well be too, with Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang facing uncertain futures at the Emirates.

And Sparta Prague ace Adam Hlozek is apparently a transfer target for both London clubs.

West Ham have been linked persistently with a move to sign the 18-year-old Czech forward (Eurosport).

Blow for Arsenal with Adam Hlozek allegedly keen on West Ham switch

The talented teenager allegedly fancies a move to the Hammers according to a report from 90 Min.

The young forward would be a very exciting addition for West Ham. And Arsenal missing out on him would be a big blow to stomach for Arteta.

Hlozek has been described as an ‘amazing talent’ by Football Talent Scout.

The 18-year-old has impressed this season despite missing a large chunk of it through injury. Hlozek has racked up five goals and seven assists in 15 games for Sparta Prague (Transfermarkt).

The Czech starlet will cost around £20 million this summer according to 90 Min.

That’s outstanding value for a player with such great quality and future potential.

And beating Arsenal to Hlozek’s signature would be a statement of real intent from West Ham this summer.
