After the season, David Moyes will depart from the Hammers, and Julen Lopetegui is anticipated to take over as manager of the team.

Youssef En-Nesyri of Sevilla is the player in question, and Dean Jones has supplied an update on the forward with ties to West Ham.

En-Nesyri has been literally linked to West Ham for years, according to Jones, who spoke with GiveMeSport. Therefore, we can put it out of our minds if it does not materialise this summer because it probably makes more sense now than it ever has.

Lopetegui has experience working with him and would be a good fit for the team’s future configuration. Sevilla is open to the notion of selling him. “He is still on their list, but whether this actually happens this time will depend on how Steidten sees the deal opening up.”

En-Nesyri, who played for Leganes and Malaga before joining Sevilla’s roster in 2020. In 192 appearances with Sevilla, the 26-year-old has 70 goals and 7 assists across all competitions. Along with the team, he has also won two Europa Leagues.

Breaking the Lines praised him in an in-depth analysis piece they wrote in 2023 on the rumoured West Ham target. They called En-Nesyri a forward with “arguably one of the best leaps in football” who is “devastating,” “reliable, and effective.” In the meantime, the player was called a “incredible good runner” by David Moyes in a pre-World Cup piece in The Times.
