West Ham United 'eyeing Lyon forward Moussa Dembele'

West Ham United are reportedly weighing up a move for Lyon striker Moussa Dembele.

The 24-year-old has scored 44 times in 101 appearances for his French club since arriving from Celtic in August 2018, including 24 goals in 46 outings in all competitions last term.

Dembele is yet to score in nine Ligue 1 appearances this season, though, and has only started four times in the league for Les Gones during the 2020-21 campaign.

According to The Sun, Lyon are willing to part with the Frenchman for £30m, which has attracted the attention of West Ham, with the London club's head coach David Moyes a 'big fan'.

The report claims that the Hammers have money to spend during the January transfer window, but Manchester United could enter the race, having also been credited with an interest over the last 12 months.

Dembele's current deal with Rudi Garcia's side is due to expire in June 2023.
