# West Ham United: Paul Robinson blown away by Mislav Orsic

**Speaking to [Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/robinson-wowed-by-update-on-west-ham-bid-to-sign-orsic-after-watching-showreel/), reacting to reports West Ham have made contact over a potential summer deal for Mislav Orsic,[Sky Sports regular](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11675/11955191/tottenhams-slump-a-long-time-coming-says-paul-robinson) Paul Robinson has been left wowed by the 19-goal forward and his impressive show reel.**

Orsic, primarily played on the left wing but can drive through the middle, has apparently been at the centre of West Ham interest recently – with GSB even making contact over a possible transfer for the 28-year-old according to another report by [Football Insider.](https://www.footballinsider247.com/west-ham-make-move-to-sign-orsic/)

Speaking to the outlet, Robinson has been left baffled by Orsic and his ability – with the pundit certainly rating him judging by what he’s seen.

### Robinson stunned by Orsic

The Croatian’s [stunning Europa League hat-trick](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7b9g4wlI9kE) dumped London rivals Tottenham Hotspur out of the Europa League, with Jose Mourinho unable to hold a two-goal first leg lead.

“His shooting ability was there for all to see,” Robinson told [Football Insider.](https://www.footballinsider247.com/robinson-wowed-by-update-on-west-ham-bid-to-sign-orsic-after-watching-showreel/)

“I mean wow, he scored some fantastic goals.

“He is not a player we know a lot about in England given that he’s playing for Dinamo Zagreb but those goals showed you a lot. I watched his showreel after that and I was impressed.

“He is clearly a player with an abundance of talent and with an eye for goal.

“He used that stage to put himself in the thoughts of Premier League teams.”

### Transfer Tavern take

Whether or not West Ham end up doing a deal for Orsic this summer remains to be seen, but it seems Robinson would certainly approve of the switch.

Valued at just £6.75 million by [Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/mislav-orsic/leistungsdaten/spieler/119150), it’s clear Zagreb may want much more for their star striker.
