# West Ham: Hammers want Keane Lewis-Potter

**According to a report from the [Daily Mail](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-10640985/Tottenham-West-ham-Premier-League-clubs-interested-Keane-Lewis-Potter.html), West Ham are among the clubs interested in signing Hull City forward Keane Lewis-Potter.**

### The lowdown: Gaining attention

Called up to the England Under-21s for the [first time](https://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/keane-lewis-potter-hull-england-6841709) this week, Lewis-Potter has rightly garnered appreciation following a rapid rise to prominence in the Championship.

Starting in all 39 of the Tigers’ league matches so far this season, the 20-year-old has earned a respectable 6.87 average rating whilst averaging 2.2 shots per game ([Sofascore](https://www.sofascore.com/player/keane-lewis-potter/972421)), finding the back of the net eight times in total.

Unsurprisingly, that form has led to huge interest in the exciting winger from the top-flight.

### The latest: London calling?

According to the [report](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-10640985/Tottenham-West-ham-Premier-League-clubs-interested-Keane-Lewis-Potter.html), the Hammers, alongside Tottenham, are keen on signing the starlet.

It’s claimed that Brentford were ‘close’ to landing Lewis-Potter in January but now the exciting ace is ‘attracting attention’ from elsewhere.

Furthermore, the report states that a fee of ‘more than £12million’ was in place to sign the Hull academy graduate.

### The verdict: A clear pathway

Having already signed and subsequently [progressed the career](https://www.theguardian.com/football/2022/jan/15/west-hams-punt-on-jarrod-bowen-is-blooming-into-a-solid-investment) of Jarrod Bowen from Hull, there is a clear drawn out career path for Lewis-Potter to follow in east London.

And, with Bowen already being [linked](https://www.football.london/west-ham-united-fc/jarrod-bowen-justifies-liverpool-transfer-22098779) with a move away from West Ham, such is the extend of his success, David Moyes could be on the lookout for a replacement for the 25-year-old in the not too distant future.

[Billed](https://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/sport/football/hull-v-west-brom-special-talent-lewis-potter-only-going-to-get-better-3598031) as a ‘special talent’ and compared to Arsenal legend Marc Overmans by manager Shota Arveladze, Lewis-Potter would be the ideal candidate to either further boost the Irons’ squad or indeed succeed Bowen.
