# West Ham: Fans react to Nikola Vlasic update

**West Ham United have held talks with CSKA Moscow attacker Nikola Vlasic, amid growing suspicion that fellow target Jesse Lingard will stay put at Manchester United this summer \[[Hammers News](https://www.hammers.news/transfer-news/sky-sports-reporter-dharmesh-sheth-delivers-verdict-on-jesse-lingard-west-ham-return-and-confirms-nikola-vlasic-talks/)\].**

Enjoying a commendable 2020/21 campaign, the Croatia international registered 18 goal contributions in 34 appearances for his current Russian employers; 12 goals and six assists \[[Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/nikola-vlasic/leistungsdaten/spieler/293200/plus/0?saison=2020)\].
