Winger on the Radar of Premier League Giants
West Ham United are reportedly keen to secure the signing of Club Brugge’s talented winger, Skov Olsen. Sources indicate that the 24-year-old has caught the attention of several Premier League clubs, sparking interest from the Hammers.
Olsen’s Playing Style Draws Comparisons to Salah
Olsen’s attacking prowess has led to comparisons with Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah. The left-footed forward is known for cutting in from the right flank, much like the Egyptian superstar. Danish journalist Klaus Egelund likened him to Eden Hazard but suggested that his style is more akin to that of Arjen Robben or Salah.
Contract Situation Could Work in West Ham’s Favour
As Olsen approaches the final 18 months of his contract, which runs until June 2026, there is a potential opportunity for West Ham to make a move. Reports suggest he could be available for a fee in the region of £25-30 million, making him an attractive target for the Irons.
Competition from Other Premier League Clubs
West Ham face stiff competition, with Tottenham and Aston Villa also showing interest in Olsen. The Hammers are currently conducting thorough research on the winger as they aim to enhance their attacking options.
Olsen’s Impressive Season Stats
This season, Olsen has made an impact at Club Brugge, scoring four goals and providing one assist in just 11 appearances. His form could make him a valuable addition to West Ham’s squad.
Future Plans for West Ham’s Attack
In addition to Olsen, West Ham are contemplating a “big-name signing” similar to Ademola Lookman to further strengthen their attacking lineup. However, financial constraints may delay these plans until the summer transfer window.
