West Ham finds themselves presented with an opportunity to secure Steven Bergwijn from Ajax in the upcoming January transfer window, as reported by HITC.

Sources suggest the Dutch international is open to returning to England after his previous tenure with London rivals Tottenham. The 26-year-old winger is reportedly on the Irons’ radar, with other Premier League clubs—Crystal Palace, Brentford, Fulham, Wolves, and Everton—also eyeing his signature.

Bergwijn’s potential arrival could bolster West Ham’s attacking options, a move crucial as they seek improvements this transfer window. While Jarrod Bowen and Mohammed Kudus offer pace and directness, Bergwijn’s versatility on both flanks promises an extra dimension to their already potent attack, complementing players like the skilled Lucas Paqueta.

Despite Ajax’s Eredivisie struggles, Bergwijn’s individual performance has been noteworthy, boasting eight goals and three assists in 20 appearances across competitions this season.

Although his previous Premier League stint with Spurs lacked consistent starting opportunities, Bergwijn’s experience in the league could offer West Ham the offensive depth needed to vie for a European place in the latter half of the season.
