‘I’d take him’ – Pundit urges West Ham to secure ‘No-brainer’ free agent signing

Frank McAvennie Urges West Ham to Sign Kelechi Iheanacho in “No-Brainer” TransferWest Ham United have been urged to sign Kelechi Iheanacho on a free transfer this summer, with former player Frank McAvennie calling the potential deal a “no-brainer”.

Iheanacho, who is currently a free agent after his contract with Leicester City expired last month, has been linked to the Hammers as well as Wolverhampton Wanderers.McAvennie, who played for West Ham in the 1980s, believes that Iheanacho’s Premier League experience and goal-scoring record make him an attractive signing for the club. “I like Iheanacho, I think he’s a great player,” McAvennie said in an exclusive interview with West Ham Zone.

“On a free transfer, I’d take him. It’s a no-brainer for me.”Iheanacho has a proven track record in the Premier League, having played for Manchester City and Leicester City. During his time at City, he emerged as a promising young player, scoring 21 goals in 64 appearances. He also played alongside Sergio Aguero, one of the Premier League’s most prolific goal-scorers. At Leicester, Iheanacho scored 61 goals in 232 matches, a decent return for a player who has often been used as a substitute.

West Ham’s new manager, Julen Lopetegui, is keen to add reinforcements to the squad this summer, and Iheanacho’s signing would provide a significant boost to the team’s attacking options. Currently, the Hammers have only two strikers, Michail Antonio and Danny Ings, and Lopetegui is looking to add a new forward to the squad as soon as possible.While West Ham have also been linked to AS Roma’s Tammy Abraham and Sevilla’s Youssef En-Nesyri, Iheanacho’s availability on a free transfer makes him an attractive option for the club.

McAvennie believes that Iheanacho’s signing would be a smart move for West Ham, given his experience and goal-scoring record.In other West Ham news, Lopetegui has hinted at his London Stadium exit in a new managerial admission. The Spanish coach is looking to build a team that can compete in the Premier League, and Iheanacho’s signing would be a significant step towards achieving that goal.

Overall, the signing of Kelechi Iheanacho would be a “no-brainer” for West Ham, according to Frank McAvennie. With his Premier League experience and goal-scoring record, Iheanacho would provide a significant boost to the team’s attacking options, and his availability on a free transfer makes him an attractive option for the club.
