West Ham United are interested in bringing Bologna goalkeeper Lukasz Skorupski to the London Stadium in the summer according to a report from Tutto Bologna Web.
Hammers boss David Moyes should be prioritising the signings of two centre-forwards this summer.
West Ham’s desperation to strengthen the striker department shouldn’t detract from our need to sign a new new goalkeeper, however.
Lukasz Fabianski and Darren Randolph will be 36 and 34 respectively before the start of next season.
And both players are far from reliable from a fitness perspective.
West Ham eyeing Lukasz Skorupski swoop?
Tutto Bologna Web claims that West Ham could try and sign Bologna stopper Lukasz Skorupski in an effort to address that particular issue in the summer.
In fact, it is suggested that the Hammers are leading the race for the 29-year-old’s signature.
Skorupski joined Bologna from Roma in the summer of 2018 for around €9.5 million (£8.2 million) according to AS Roma’s official website.
The four-capped Poland international has been in good form for Bologna this season, keeping four clean sheets in 17 Serie A games and letting in just 23 goals in the process (Transfermarkt).
At 6ft 2in tall, Lukasz Skorupski isn’t the biggest of goalkeepers. He is incredibly agile, however, and is an impressive shot-stopper.
Quite how much Bologna will demand for the goalkeeper is unclear. It seems as though he would be a useful addition for West Ham if we can pick him up for a reasonable fee, however.
