The competition to secure the services of a West Ham forward Said Benrahma might extend until the final days of the January transfer window, with both Wolves and Fulham reportedly among the clubs vying for his signature.The Hammers’ playmaker, is the focal point of this interest, as reports suggest that West Ham would entertain offers for him in the remaining weeks of the winter window, but only if the offer matches their valuation.Said Benrahma, Let Gary O’Neil revive your career. 🇩🇿🌟 pic.twitter.com/cQJu6ATyDi— 𝓼𝓱𝓪𝓾𝓷 🇯🇵 (@wwfc_shaun) January 5, 2024 According to Football Insider, West Ham has set a $25 million price tag on the 28-year-old to deter potential suitors. Wolves, Fulham, and French side Lyon are among those interested, with all three preferring a loan deal containing an option or obligation to purchase during the summer.Benrahma was expected to join the Algeria squad for the African Cup of Nations but was excluded following a fallout with national team manager Djamel Belmadi.Currently providing attacking cover in the absence of players like Mohammed Kudus (on AFCON duty) and the injured Lucas Paqueta, Benrahma’s presence is assisting manager David Moyes in team selection.Football Insider suggests that while a transfer remains a possibility, it is likely to occur closer to the end of the month to avoid disrupting the strength of Moyes’ squad.##NAJAVA_MECA_7781588##Benrahma reportedly desires a departure from West Ham in search of more consistent playing time. Despite featuring in 21 games across all competitions this season, he has only managed one assist. His recent form contrasts sharply with last season, during which he scored 12 goals and provided five assists in 51 matches, contributing significantly to the club’s Europa Conference League success.The arrival of Mohammed Kudus has pushed Benrahma into a lesser role, prompting his eagerness to secure a move elsewhere.West Ham is scheduled to face Championship side Bristol City in the FA Cup third round this afternoon.
