The Hammers would prefer to get him tied down to a new contract before sending him out on loan, however.
The 18-year-old striker is a real talent.
His record since arriving at the London Stadium from Manchester United in October 2019 proves that.
Mipo has bagged 26 goals in 22 appearances for West Ham’s youth teams (Transfermarkt).
Unfortunately for the teenager, however, he has looked like a fish out of water when playing for the senior team.
A loan exit from the London Stadium is exactly what he needs. It seems as though the teenager is looking for something more permanent, however.
Mipo Odubeko wants West Ham exit
90 Min claims that the 18-year-old is chasing regular first-team action and he would prefer a permanent exit from the London Stadium in order to get that.
It would be a shame to lose Mipo because he undoubtedly has a lot of talent. He’s nowhere near ready to play senior football now, however.
So if he wants to leave then so be it.
