David Moyes has had a loan with a £17m obligation to buy bid for Youssef En-Nesyri accepted, but the player has rejected West Ham.

That’s according to a report from ABC Sevilla, who claim that En-Nesyri has now rejected a move to the London for a third time!

David Moyes clearly needs to add another top-class striker to his ranks at the London Stadium before the January transfer window slams shut.

And En-Nesyri, 25, is someone who is back on the Hammers’ radar.

The Moroccan has been linked with above to the London Stadium since January 2021 (The Athletic). It seems as though we’ve hit a brick wall yet again though…

West Ham close to En-Nesyri but player has rejected us

ABC Sevilla reckon that the Hammers could actually sign the Moroccan on loan for the remainder of the season, with an obligation to buy him for £17 million in the summer.

However, the striker doesn’t want to move for the London Stadium.

If all of this is true, I really don’t understand why we continue to chase the Sevilla hitman, when it’s clear that he has no interest whatsoever joining us.

Besides, En-Nesyri is a decent striker – not a great one.

There are plenty more options out there for the Hammers, and Moyes really shouldn’t be wasting his time any more on the Morocco international.

The Sevilla player has rejected West Ham not once, not twice, but three times now!

It really is time for Moyes to move on.
