West Ham reportedly want to sign Noni Madueke in the January transfer window, but it appears as though Chelsea have made the first concrete move.
That’s according to a report from 90 Min who claim that the 20-year-old PSV Eindhoven winger is wanted by a whole host of Premier League clubs in the January transfer window, including West Ham and Chelsea.

Hammers boss David Moyes desperately needs to bolster his wide attacking options at the London Stadium this month.
However, the same certainly cannot be said of big spending Chelsea manager Graham Potter, with the recent signing of Joao Felix and the impending arrival of the ultra-talented Mykhailo Mudryk.
So maybe, just maybe, the Hammers might have an advantage in the race to sign the PSV starlet…
West Ham and Chelsea eye January transfer window move for Noni Madueke
90 Min reckon that the two London clubs both want to bring the 20-year-old winger back to the Capital from Holland.
What a signing he would be for West Ham, if Moyes somehow manages to pull this one off.
Football Talent Scout have described the London-born attacker as an ‘unreal’ talent. And he could be available for around £40 million in January, according to The Mirror.
Madueke is left footed, and he mostly operates as a right winger, although he can play as a centre-forward as well.
He has bagged 20 goals and 14 assists in 79 games for PSV Eindhoven (Transfermarkt).
The English youngster possesses blistering pace and has exceptional technical ability. He would undoubtedly take the Hammers’ attacking play to a whole new level entirely.
Whether or not West Ham will be able to beat Chelsea to Madueke’s signature in the January transfer window remains to be seen though.
