West Ham accelerate new striker plans ahead of January
da heads bet： Nuno Espírito Santo’s side are accelerating their search for attacking reinforcements ahead of the January transfer window.
The Hammers currently languish in 18th with just 13 points and sit three points adrift of safety. Their lack of a reliable goalscorer up front has placed enormous pressure on the club’s recruitment team to identify solutions, especially with Fullkrug nearing the exit door.
Fullkrug’s imminent departure will undoubtedly intensify the urgency surrounding West Ham’s striker search.
The German international has endured a nightmare spell since his £27 million arrival last year, managing just three goals in 29 appearances.

His agent has also practically confirmed the 32-year-old wants out of London, with Fabrizio Romano sharing this week that Fullkrug has given total priority to Milan despite interest from the Bundesliga.
For West Ham, signing a proven replacement for Fullkrug is imperative as they look to battle their way out of the relegation zone.
A host of strikers have already been linked with moves to the London Stadium, with the Irons holding discussions over a move for ex-Brentford star Ivan Toney, only to be told a Saudi exit for the player is unlikely next month.

West Ham were also believed to be in pole position for Promise David, but the Jupiler Pro League star is now more inclined to remain at Union Saint-Gilloise.
As their striker pool runs low, journalist Graeme Bailey has told TEAMtalk that Nuno could bring his search closer to home.
West Ham make approach for Everton striker Beto
According to his information, Fullkrug has agreed personal terms with Milan already, and West Ham have made an approach for Everton striker Beto.
Bailey reports that West Ham have made contact with Everton regarding Beto’s availability, though any potential deal hinges entirely on the Toffees securing their own forward replacement first.
The Portuguese striker has struggled for consistent opportunities under David Moyes this season, making him receptive to a January move.
West Ham have also enquired about former Middlesbrough forward Emmanuel Latte-Lath, currently plying his trade with Atlanta United.
The striker apparently harbors ambitions of returning to European football, making him another viable candidate for Nuno’s struggling frontline.
In Beto’s case, the thought of him being an answer for West Ham is very debatable.
The 27-year-old has bagged just 12 goals in 76 total Premier League appearances for Everton, but the number nine could be a cheaper option financially considering his second-string status under Moyes and the fact his contract expires in 2027.
