West Ham United is reportedly eyeing a move for America-born Ghanaian midfielder Yunus Musah during this summer transfer window.

According to Estadio Deportivo, the club has reached out to Musah's agents to express their keen interest in acquiring the services of the talented midfielder.

The Hammers' manager, David Moyes, is determined to secure the signature of a top-class central midfielder as his highest priority this summer.

This urgency stems from the expected departure of Declan Rice from the London Stadium. In light of this, Musah has emerged as a potential target for the club.

Estadio Deportivo's report confirms West Ham's approach to Musah's representatives, indicating the club's determination to secure the Valencia ace's services.

Observers believe that the American international's skill set and performance during the World Cup in Qatar further justify West Ham's pursuit of the talented midfielder.

Musah showcased his brilliance while representing the United States on the global stage, and his exceptional abilities make him an ideal candidate to replace Rice in the long run.

With his impressive box-to-box capabilities, the American international is a natural fit for the demanding role of a central midfielder.
