Journalist: West Ham priced out of a move for Josh King

According to TalkSport journalist Alex Crook, West Ham have been priced out of a move for AFC Bournemouth striker Josh King.

The Hammers are looking to sign a striker this month following the departure of Sebastien Haller who joined Ajax for a fee of £20m.

Michail Antonio remains the club’s only recognised striker at the moment, and the Hammers are exploring several options like King, Eddie Nketiah, and Boulaye Dia.

David Moyes, the Hammers boss, is a big fan of the player and wanted to sign him during the summer. The Cherries are also open to selling him but only at the right price.
