West Ham United fans have been reacting to the news that they are interested in signing Julian Alvarez from River Plate this summer.
Last term was a fantastic one for the Hammers, as they finished sixth in the Premier League table and therefore qualified for the Europa League. However, although they will have another competition to deal with next term, they are yet to make a single new signing during this transfer window.
There have been plenty of reported targets, though, and one of them is Alvarez according to ESPN Futbol Argentina. A right-winger, the 21-year-old has enjoyed himself with the Argentinian giants, scoring 16 goals and providing 17 assists in 69 appearances for the club (Transfermarkt), while he has also already made his debut for the South American nation.
The news was shared on Twitter by @WestHam_Central, and it has attracted plenty of attention from the supporters. They took to the social media platform to share their thoughts.
