West Ham have shown interest in acquiring Oleksandr Zinchenko as a successor to Aaron Creswell. The club is aiming for a successful summer transfer window following a lackluster 2024-25 season. Zinchenko is regarded as a versatile player capable of playing in midfield, and he is open to reducing his wages at his next club, which fits well with West Ham's financial approach. The Hammers are competing with Atletico Madrid, AC Milan, Ajax, and Borussia Dortmund for the Ukrainian international. Nonetheless, AC Milan's hesitation to match Arsenal's €15m asking price provides West Ham with optimism about securing the transfer. Zinchenko seems poised to depart Arsenal this summer, as the club already includes Myles Lewis-Skelly and Riccardo Calafiori in their squad.
