Author of a breathtaking start to the season with OGC Nice, Evann Guessand pleases many Premier League clubs. West Ham, who are also monitoring Elye Wahi, are ready to take advantage of the Ivorian striker.
Author of 8 goals and 4 assists in 17 Ligue 1 matches since the start of the season, Evann Guessand is undoubtedly the main offensive weapon of the Franck Haise version of OGC Nice. Able to shine up front or on one side, the 23-year-old Ivorian international showcases his power and efficiency on the Côte d'Azur. His progress is meteoric and has not escaped Olympique de Marseille, which is monitoring his profile in the event of the departure of Elye Wahi during this winter transfer window. But it is not only in Ligue 1 that the former FC Nantes striker is starting to make a name for himself.
West Ham is hot on Evann Guessand
And as proof, the Daily Mail reveals that West Ham are also very interested in the Nice striker. The British media reveals that the Hammers have been following Evann Guessand for a long time and that everything could accelerate due to the injury of their two attackers, Michail Antonio and Niclas Füllkrug. Under contract with Nice until June 2028, the native of Ajaccio is not for sale but the current 4th in Ligue 1 remains attentive to offers and will logically be attentive in the event of an important proposal. This is good, West Ham plans to offer 25 million euros to the Gym for Evann Guessand from January. Franck Haise will certainly be categorical, refusing to hear about a departure from his star striker. But for its part, Ineos will perhaps have more difficulty refusing such a proposal for a player trained at the club and for whom the added value would therefore be colossal.
