West Ham United have made a bid of £20m for the Nigeria/Manchester City’s striker Kelechi Iheanacho in the new transfer window.
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola may likely allow the Nigerian born leave his side this summer as various clubs are keen to sign the 20 year old striker.
It was gathered that West Ham are unlikely to meet City’s sky-high valuation for Iheanacho but they are hopeful of getting a deal done after tabling a first formal bid which is designed to get things moving.
West Ham are eager to strengthen their strike force especially after allowing Jonathan Calleri to leave after having him on loan. They have also agreed a Bosman-style free transfer deal for City’s Pablo Zabaleta who is out of contract this summer.
