West Ham, which was relegated to the Championship, is interested in signing Simon Adingra. Adingra is a 24-year-old Ivory Coast winger for Sunderland and is under contract with the club until 2030. The London club faces competition, as AS Roma and RB Leipzig are also seeking a permanent transfer. Premier League sides Ipswich and Hull City are also interested. AS Monaco, where Adingra previously spent time on loan, is trying to arrange another loan deal. Discussions have taken place between the player and West Ham's management. Adingra has 30 caps and 5 goals for his country. He joined Sunderland from Brighton in July 2025 for a fee reported to be €24 million, and his current market value is estimated by Transfermarkt to be €22 million. A purchase option for Monaco was reportedly valued at €17 million in June 2026.
