Issahaku Fatawu Transfer from Leicester City to West Ham United
West Ham are interested in signing Abdul Fatawu, a 22-year-old Ghanaian winger from Leicester City, as a potential replacement for either Jarrod Bowen or Crysencio Summerville. Jarrod Bowen has been linked with Everton and Aston Villa, and it is reported that West Ham are seeking £50 million for him. Crysencio Summerville is understood to be a target for Manchester United. It is believed that West Ham are confident they can acquire Fatawu for a reduced fee, as Leicester City need to make further sales to balance their finances. West Ham hope to use the situation at the King Power Stadium to secure a deal for a lower price. Abdul Fatawu joined Leicester in July 2024 and has a contract until 2029. In the previous season, he scored 9 goals and provided 8 assists in 44 Championship appearances. He has also been linked with Everton, RB Leipzig, and Beşiktaş. After Leicester's relegation, reports stated the club would accept offers between £15 million and £20 million. In June 2026, a reported offer of €15 million from Beşiktaş was described as insufficient. Leicester's valuation at that time was said to be approximately €20 million. A decision on the future of the Ghana international may be delayed because he is currently competing at the World Cup in North America.
