Mission impossible for West Ham with £50m star desperate to join Liverpool in January

Julen Lopetegui has a lot of work to do at the London Stadium this winter, if he is still in charge of the Hammers or course!

It has been suggested that Lopetegui could be sacked before the end of the month, but if he manages to turn things round, he will have to make a couple of changes to his squad in January.

More pace is desperately needed along the front-line, if we are to make any kind of genuine progress.

It looks like one of our targets may well be out of reach this winter though.

West Ham face problem with star desperate for Liverpool move

So it seems like Christian Pulisic would prefer to move to Anfield rather than the London Stadium.

It emerged yesterday that the Hammers were battling the Reds for the USMNT international forward.

Pulisic would be a sensational signing for West Ham, but there’s been some bad news for us it seems.

According to a report from Calciomercato.it, the former Chelsea forward is desperate to join Liverpool, and is not tempted at all by the chance to move to West Ham.

That obviously ends our chances of bringing him to East London.

Calcio Mercato claim that AC Milan could ask for around £50 million of the 26-year-old winger.

Liverpool will have no problem at all meeting those demands.

Despite his struggles with Chelsea, the American has been in fine form for AC Milan since the summer of 2023, with 22 goals and 16 assists to his name in 65 appearances (Transfermarkt).

The 75-capped USMNT international is extremely versatile, and can play anywhere along the front-line.

Pulisic possesses exceptional technical ability, really impressive pace and offers genuine output inside the final third.

Christian Pulisic is an elite player who’s good enough to be considered world-class if he continues to improve but unfortunately for us, it seems like he will be Liverpool bound in January.
