West Ham United are preparing for the upcoming Championship season and are looking to strengthen their squad. The club, now under the control of Daniel Kretinsky and the Gold family, understands the necessity of selling players to fund new signings. With the aim of returning to the Premier League, West Ham United is actively scouting potential targets, including players from the EFL. One notable name on their radar is Zion Suzuki, the Japan international goalkeeper currently playing for Parma. Previously, West Ham United had advanced discussions to sign Suzuki, but the deal fell through when they opted to acquire Mads Hermansen from Leicester City instead. While the club hopes Hermansen will be their first-choice goalkeeper, his impressive performances have attracted interest from other clubs, which could lead to his departure. Should Hermansen leave, West Ham United may reignite their pursuit of Suzuki. Currently, Suzuki is participating in the World Cup with Japan, and the Hammers will be hoping for a less-than-stellar performance to increase their chances of securing his services this summer.
