# West Ham United: Dean Jones drops Dominic Calvert-Lewin transfer update

**Speaking to [Give Me Sport,](https://www.givemesport.com/1826880-west-ham-transfer-news-major-update-on-potential-irons-deal-for-60m-star-this-month?amp) transfer insider and journalist Dean Jones of Eurosport has shared a West Ham United update as they allegedly eye a move for Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin.**

### The Lowdown: West Ham line up move?

Amid manager David Moyes’ hunt for a new striker this month, perhaps one of the most surprise links of the January window was to the England international earlier this week.

[The Sun and journalist Alan Nixon](https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/17409648/west-ham-dominic-calvert-lewin-transfer-everton/) claimed that West Ham, and by extension recruitment chief Rob Newman, were eyeing a move to sign Calvert-Lewin valued at a sky high £60 million.

The Irons would have to break their transfer record to complete this move, an aspect of this potential deal which proves a huge obstacle, with Jones now sharing an update on the story.

### The Latest: Jones drops Calvert-Lewin update…

As per his sources, speaking to [GMS](https://www.givemesport.com/1826880-west-ham-transfer-news-major-update-on-potential-irons-deal-for-60m-star-this-month?amp), it is believed that West Ham do not in fact hold an interest in moving for the Toffees forward ‘at this point’.

“West Ham aren’t actually interested in Calvert-Lewin at this point I’m told,” he explained.

“West Ham are obviously linked with 10 strikers every window, but Calvert-Lewin isn’t somebody that they’re looking to sign right now, especially as there’s a £60m fee that’s being talked about.”

### The Verdict: Not a surprise?

The 24-year-old, especially going by his impressive [21 goals and five assists](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/dominic-calvert-lewin/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/306024) across all competitions last season at Goodison Park, would of course be a brilliant signing for Moyes.

Lauded as a[‘sensational’](https://www.bt.com/sport/news/2020/october/tony-cottee-hoping-sensational-dominic-calvert-lewin-gets-england-start) striker by former West Ham favourite Tony Cottee, Calvert-Lewin would bring a different dimension up front and provide a real injection of quality alongside Michail Antonio.

However, it is no surprise to see West Ham aren’t currently eyeing a late window move going by his seismic price tag, and if that were to change, it would certainly be one of the shocks of the winter window.
