As per reliable reporter Jack Rosser of The Evening Standard, some news has emerged on West Ham and their hunt for a new striker.

The Lowdown: West Ham still in the market...

The Irons' centre-forward pursuit can be stretched all the way back to January, when David Moyes confirmed that offers had been made for Sevilla's Youssef En-Nesyri.

This is to solve the lack of cover for star striker Michail Antonio, especially taking into account his injury history, and despite the club's efforts, they still haven't managed to land an alternative to the Jamaica international.

The search is still on, however, as Rosser brings an update involving FC Copenhagen striker Jonas Wind.

The Latest: West Ham weigh bid...

As per The Evening Standard, West Ham - and by extension head of recruitment Rob Newman - are 'weighing up a move' for the prolific Dane, who has bagged a senior career total of 45 goals for his current club.

Indeed, a striker apparently 'remains high' on Moyes' shopping list ahead of January as he looks to maintain the Hammers' head-turning start to the 2021/22 campaign.

The Verdict: Good option...

Over his appearances for Copenhagen this season, Wind has showcased a real proficiency in front of goal with 10 across all competitions already, along with six assists (Transfermarkt).

He's also a towering presence at 6 foot 2 and could possess a physicality suited to the tough nature of Premier League football.

In a further incentive for West Ham to move for him, it is believed that the 22-year-old could leave his current club for as little as £11m in January, as recently claimed by Ekstra Bladet (via Sport Witness).

Amid the Irons' links to Andrea Belotti and Adam Hlozek, Wind could come as a shrewd alternative.
