Sources: West Ham, Fulham and Crystal Palace told £20m will seal Habib Diallo deal

West Ham and a host of other interested Premier League sides could land Strasbourg hitman Habib Diallo for a fee of £20million this summer, sources have told Football Insider.

This site revealed on Monday (15 May) that representatives from the Irons, Brighton, Crystal Palace, Brentford and Fulham watched on as the 27-year-old netted twice against Nice on Saturday (13 May) to ensure a 2-0 win.

Diallo has two years left to run on his Strasbourg contract, and it is believed the French club are hoping for a bidding war in the off-season.

A well-placed recruitment source has told Football Insider that interested clubs are preparing bids with the transfer window set to swing open in the coming weeks.

It is believed an offer of £20million could be enough to land Diallo, who would jump at the chance of a Premier League move.

Interest in the Senegal international comes as a result of his fine form in the 2022-23 campaign.

Diallo has managed 20 goals in 35 appearances across all competitions this term – and sits fourth in the Ligue 1 scoring charts with three games left to play.

The 16-cap star helped Senegal lift the African Cup of Nations in February 2022, making three appearances at the tournament.

His Strasbourg contract, which nets the forward a reported wage of around £10,000-a-week, is set to expire in June 2025.

West Ham are on the hunt for a new striker after a disappointing 2022-23 campaign.

Football Insider revealed on Monday (15 May) that Michail Antonio could pursue a summer exit in the search for more regular first-team football if a forward is brought in this summer.

The Irons could have Europa League football to help lure their targets if they can win the Europa Conference League this season.
