ExWHUemployee claimed earlier this month that West Ham could make a move to sign the 23-year-old striker.
Hammers boss David Moyes must do everything he can to bring a new striker to the London Stadium this month.
West Ham sold Sebastien Haller to Ajax two weeks ago. And now Michail Antonio is the club’s only recognised senior centre-forward.
TEAMtalk reckons that Blackburn hitman Adam Armstrong could be an option for the east London outfit.
The 23-year-old has everything we need and he would be the absolutely ideal January addition for David Moyes.
He has been on fire this season with 17 goals in 26 games for Rovers to his name (Transfermarkt).
The 23-year-old is a hard-working striker, possesses explosive pace and certainly fits the mould of player David Moyes loves.
Blackburn manager Tony Mowbray recently raved about Armstrong, as quoted by the Evening Express:
“His explosive pace at the top end of the pitch allows you to play both ways, to not be overly concerned if you’re pinned back around the edge of your box because one pass releases pressure for someone to play the pass that he can hit just leaving it in the space for the speed and dynamic movement of Armstrong – it’s a devastating effect for the team.”
We really should be all over this one.
Some West Ham fans have reacted jubilantly on Twitter to the links with Adam Armstrong…
