West Ham signing this explosive 21-goal star would add some much-needed teeth to sharpen their blunt attack
Why West Ham should plot a January swoop for Moussa Marega
West Ham have enjoyed a decent start to this season having spent a lot of money in the summer on new signings as they sit 11th in the Premier League standings after nine games.
Summer signing and club-record capture Sebastien Haller has started well with four goals so far. The big Frenchman has impressed with his ability to hold the ball up and bring his teammates into the game.
A presence like that was absolutely needed at West Ham, following the departures of Marko Arnautovic and Andy Carroll at the end of the last season.
Pablo Fornals, another summer signing, however, hasn’t set the world alight. He has struggled with the pace and intensity of the Premier League but there’s no doubting the Spaniard will adapt to English football sooner rather than later.
The Hammers may have lost their last two league games but Manuel Pellegrini will be pretty happy with his team’s response following the opening day thumping at the hands of Manchester City. When the transfer window reopens, Pellegrini may look to beef up his squad with a couple of additions.
The West Ham tactician should look to strengthen his options upfront in January. If Haller went down with an injury that would keep him out of action then the Hammers are very limited upfront. Albian Ajeti was signed from FC Basel in the summer but he isn’t quite ready for regular Premier League action.
Michail Antonio would be an option to replace Haller but he is currently working his way back to fitness from hamstring surgery after an injury he picked up in August.
Following the exits of Arnautovic, Carroll, Javier Hernandez and Lucas Perez, Pellegrini could be tempted to bring in another striker in the midseason trading period. To put things into perspective, the east Londoners should go for FC Porto star Moussa Marega.
Moussa Marega, 28, who was heavily linked with a move to West Ham in the summer, enjoyed an excellent 2018/19 campaign with Porto, netting 21 times. He has continued that form this campaign, netting four goals and providing two assists in seven league fixtures.
In terms of his attributes, the 28-year-old is a strong, powerful forward blessed with good pace and aerial ability. He has the ability to time his jump to perfection to win the aerial duels and can outmuscle defenders in the box with his brute force.
The Malian is known for his ability to hold the ball in the final third for his teammates to get into scoring positions.

Marega can also make impressive runs behind the defenders and also has the ability to find the net with powerful shots from outside the box, something adds to his repertoire of skills.
The Les Ulis-born star has the physical attributes to thrive in the Premier League. He’ll perfectly suit West Ham’s style of play, whilst bring in much-needed competition for the likes of Haller and Ajeti.
Verdict
Marega has arguably been the best striker in Portugal for the last couple of seasons now and he would certainly be a massive coup for West Ham.

Celtic dealt major blow in pursuit of Bologna star Aaron Hickey
According to La Nazione (h/t Daily Record), Fiorentina have intensified negotiations with fellow Serie A club Bologna for the signing of Celtic target Aaron Hickey, dealing a blow to the Hoops.
Hickey started out at the academy of Scottish club Heart of Midlothian FC and briefly spent time at Celtic as well before returning to Hearts, where he graduated to the first-team and went on to make 34 senior appearances.
The young left-back, who scored and assisted one goal apiece for his boyhood club, was snapped up by Serie A side Bologna in the summer of last year. Hickey did not feature regularly for the Serie A outfit due to injury problems. Indeed, the 19-year-old featured in just 12 games throughout the 2020/21 season.
But his stock remains high as ever, as Celtic are intent on bringing him back to Scotland this summer. The Hoops, embarking on a new journey under new manager Ange Postecoglou, are looking to bolster their defensive department.
Having decided not to sign Diego Laxalt permanently, Celtic have just Boli Bolingoli and Greg Taylor as options at left-back, with the former unsure of a future after returning from loan. So, signing someone like Hickey, who can make the spot his own for the coming years, would have been a good move.
However, Fiorentina seem to have thrown a spanner in the works for Celtic as the Serie A side have upped their efforts to land the youngster from Bologna. Indeed, it is reported that La Viola have intensified negotiations over a move, although they will have to offer at least €5m to stand a chance of signing the teenager.

Bologna are in no hurry to sell Hickey and will wait for the highest bid as they look to maximise their profits. It is now up to Celtic to step up in their pursuit of the 19-year-old or risk missing out on him.
Transfer News: Rangers star Glen Kamara wanted by Everton
According to transfer news from Eurosport (h/t Glasgow Live), Premier League club Everton have entered the race to sign Glen Kamara from Scottish champions Rangers this summer.
Kamara started out his youth football in his homeland, Finland, before switching to England in 2011 when he signed for the Southend United academy. A year later, he was snapped up by Premier League giants Arsenal, where he rose through the youth ranks but couldn’t break into the first-team.
After loan spells away at Southend United and Colchester United, Kamara left Arsenal permanently in the summer of 2017, signing for Scottish club Dundee FC. The 25-year-old Finnish midfielder rose to prominence with the club and was picked up by Steven Gerrard’s Rangers in the winter transfer window of 2019.
During his two-and-a-half-year stay at the Ibrox Stadium, Kamara has developed into one of the best midfielders on show in the Scottish Premiership. The Finland star played an integral role in the Gers’ title victory last season as he racked up over 50 appearances in all competitions, scoring and assisting a couple of goals apiece. (h/t Transfermarkt)
However, Kamara’s time at the Ibrox Stadium could be drawing towards a close, with Everton joining a number of other clubs in pursuit of the ex-Arsenal youngster. Indeed, the likes of Watford and Brentford have already shown an interest in the 25-year-old while an unnamed Russian club is also keen, with the Toffees also joining the bandwagon.

Given how important Kamara has been for Rangers in his time at the club, his potential departure would come as a blow. However, with his contract expiring in two years and with so many teams interested, this also represents the Gers best chance of making good money from his sale, which they can reinvest in the squad.
With a transfer fee of £15m being mentioned, the Light Blues could stand to make a massive profit, having signed him for a measly £50k in 2019.
