Premier League clubs Bournemouth and West Ham United are reportedly exploring moves for Marseille forward Elye Wahi, who has struggled to find form since joining the French club in the summer.
Elye Wahi, 22, is attracting interest from Bournemouth and West Ham United, according to L’Équipe. The striker, who joined Marseille from RC Lens for a deal worth €25 million plus €5 million in bonuses, has endured a difficult start to life at the Vélodrome.
Since his summer transfer, Wahi has managed only three goals in 13 appearances for Les Olympiens and has recently been displaced by Neal Maupay in manager Roberto De Zerbi’s starting lineup. With limited game time and a lack of consistent performances, Wahi could be open to a move to reignite his form.
Both Bournemouth and West Ham are reportedly considering a deal, although discussions remain at a preliminary stage. A potential transfer or a loan with an option to buy could be on the table. However, Marseille are unlikely to entertain offers far below the fee they paid for Wahi last summer.
