West Ham United are 17th in the Premier League points table currently, and Graham Potter is trying to change the fortunes of the club after becoming the manager midseason. The Hammers have struggled to score consistent goals, and much of that has been due to the lack of a well-performing striker. It is a problem that has been persistent with them for a few seasons, and hence, they need to sign a quality striker in the summer.
West Ham United Have Reached Personal Agreement With Yuri Alberto
CaughtOffside has reported that West Ham United are very close to signing Yuri Alberto. He has been their priority for quite some time, and Potter wants the club to get the deal done as soon as possible. The club have agreed personal terms with the player. Alberto has been performing consistently for the Corinthians, and he was especially on peak form in the last season.
Potter feels that he is the type of striker who will fit his style of play. Gianluca Scamacca and Niclas Fullkrug have not performed exceptionally well despite the club making a big investment in the duo. Moreover, it is not quite certain that Mikhail Antonio and Danny Ings will stay at the club. West Ham are also facing difficulties is signing Evan Ferguson permanently. In that case, Alberto is their best option.
What will he provide the Hammers?
Yuri Alberto is a lively and versatile striker, known for his sharp finishing, explosive pace, and smart off-the-ball movement. He is strong in the air and quick across the ground. The striker is a constant threat inside the box. His relentless work rate and pressing ability make him a nightmare for defenders trying to play out from the back.
At Corinthians, his consistent goal-scoring showed his clinical edge. Comfortable playing centrally or drifting wide, Alberto offers tactical flexibility — a valuable asset for any team looking to add energy, goals, and unpredictability to their front line.
