West Ham United should try to prise Moise Kean away from Everton this summer. And we think that Paris Saint-Germain boss Mauricio Pochettino and Tottenham striker Harry Kane could help the Hammers’ chances of doing just that.

David Moyes will be desperate to bring a top class striker to the London Stadium this summer.

West Ham failed to replace Sebastien Haller after selling the Ivorian to Ajax for £20 million in January.

And our centre-forward deficiencies need to be addressed in the summer as a matter of urgency.

One useful option for the Hammers could be Everton striker Moise Kean.

The Italy international struggled under Carlo Ancelotti at Goodison Park, however. He was farmed out to Paris Saint-Germain on loan in the summer of 2020.

Mauricio Pochettino and Harry Kane could influence West Ham United’s chances of signing Everton ace Moise Kean

Now, it is highly likely that Mauricio Pochettino will try to bring the Everton owned ace to PSG on a permanent basis in the summer.

The Argentinian could look elsewhere, however.

The Mirror claims that Paris Saint-Germain could target a blockbuster move for Tottenham striker Harry Kane at the end of the season. Therefore, if Pochettino signs his former player, there would then be no need to bring Moise Kean to the Parc des Princes.

Kane, 27, will be desperate to win some major trophies over the next five years or so.

If he doesn’t think he can do that at Spurs under Jose Mourinho, he may well be tempted by a move to PSG.

Then West Ham could swoop in for the 21-year-old Italian. If Ancelotti is prepared to sell him of course.

Kean would be an excellent addition for the Hammers.

The former Juventus ace is an absolute powerhouse of a striker. Sure, he struggled at Everton but his quality is undeniable.

And now with a successful period of games under his belt with PSG, he may well return to England a different animal.

If Everton are prepared to sell Kean, signing him this summer should be a no-brainer for West Ham.

PSG’s decision on which striker to sign at the end of the season will play a huge part in our hopes of doing just that, however.

Let’s hope Kane ends up in Paris next season!
