West Ham United boss and senior employee David Moyes has been spotted on a Monday mission as the Hammers eye Hull City attacker Keane Lewis-Potter.
The Lowdown: West Ham in the mix…
As Moyes and the club remain linked with some of the Championship’s most best players, including the likes of Dael Fry (Middlesbrough) and Rob Dickie (QPR), they have also been showing interest in Tigers starlet Lewis-Potter.

The Daily Mail recently revealed that West Ham, as well as Spurs, are keeping close tabs on the 21-year-old who has been shining in the second tier under Hull boss Shota Arveladze.
The England Under-21 international, as per BBC Radio Humberside reporter David Burns, is now the subject of a personal spot check from Moyes as he makes a Monday claim.
The Latest: Moyes spotted on Lewis-Potter mission…
Burns, sharing news on Twitter, spotted the Irons boss across London personally running the rule over Lewis-Potter as Hull faced off in a 2-1 defeat away to Millwall.
Replying in a thread to the post, he confirmed that both Lewis-Potter and central defender Jacob Greaves are on West Ham’s radar.
The Verdict: Make a move…
At such a young age, Hull’s brilliant winger has emerged as one of their most important players, racking up the most goals and assists combined (9G, 3A) in the Championship out of anyone in their squad (WhoScored).
He’s also had more attempts at goal on average than every Tigers ace this season (2.2), marking himself out as one of Arveladze’s most potent attacking threats.
There is little wonder he could cost interested clubs £20 million as his value soars, with pundit Clinton Morrison also calling Lewis-Potter an ‘outstanding’ player.
