Report: Josh Maja keen on joining West Ham United ahead of Rangers

According to Owngoal Nigeria, Bordeaux striker Josh Maja wants to join West Ham United ahead of Rangers should he leave the Ligue 1 outfit this summer.

Steven Gerrard’s side could be without Colombian striker Alfredo Morelos, and could look to bring in another striker despite already signing Kemar Roofe and Cedric Itten yesterday.

The Hammers also want Maja, with boss David Moyes eyeing a reunion having worked with him at Sunderland.

The 21-year-old prefers to move to the Premier League and link up with West Ham, fearing that a move to the Scottish Premiership could affect his chances of regularly playing for the Nigerian national team.
