West Ham are keen on Norwich City’s Max Aarons and Watford’s Joao Pedro, reports ExWHUemployee.
West Ham are becoming well-known for buying players from the Championship. Names like Jarrod Bowen and Flynn Downes are just two examples, and the Hammers have also been closely linked with Bristol City’s Alex Scott and Coventry City’s Viktor Gyokeres this season too.
But speaking on The West Ham Way Podcast (via thewesthamway.com), ExWHUemployee has revealed that David Moyes’ side are also keen on Aarons and Pedro.
Aarons looks set to leave Norwich City in the summer with the Canaries looking set to miss out on the Championship play-offs, and the same can be said of Pedro’s Watford who sit in 12th place of the table after last night’s defeat v Cardiff – Norwich sit in 10th.
Hammers in the market…
West Ham have endured a tough season in the Premier League. They need to restock in the summer and the Championship is where they do a lot of their business now, so these links aren’t too surprising.
And they’re coming from a very credible source, so Norwich City and Watford can take these rumours with a degree of certainty as we near the end of the Championship campaign.
Both clubs may be expecting to lose the two aforementioned players – both have been with their respective clubs for a while now and both have had suitors in the past.
What’s more is that Norwich and Watford have endured very tough seasons, with another Championship campaign lying ahead of them, so players with pedigree like Aarons and Pedro may be snapped up quite soon into the summer transfer window.
