West Ham United could be interested in Bologna goalkeeper Lukasz Skorupski, according to a report from TuttoBolognaWeb.

The 29-year-old has made 18 Serie A appearances this season. And it appears that his form is not going unnoticed elsewhere.

According to TuttoBolognaWeb, West Ham could be interested in bringing the Poland international to the London Stadium. It is also claimed that a host of other Premier League sides could potentially join them in the running should they decide to bolster their goalkeeper options.

The Hammers are currently well-stocked between the sticks. Skorupski’s countryman Lukasz Fabianski remains a hugely important figure in David Moyes’s squad.

Darren Randolph meanwhile, is not a bad understudy to have. The Republic of Ireland international returned to the side at the weekend as they produced an impressive performance at Manchester City.

But Moyes may perhaps have one eye on the future. Fabianski will have turned 36 by the time the campaign concludes. And Randolph’s 34th birthday will follow shortly after.

Skorupski – who cost Bologna around £7.8 million (via Football Italia) – is not exactly a youngster. But he has been a consistent performer in Italy’s top flight over the last few years.

So if West Ham are indeed looking at him, perhaps he may prove a shrewd addition for a Hammers side looking to keep moving forward right now.
