Jarrod Bowen has emerged as an inviting transfer target amid the looming threat of West Ham United's relegation. Should the Hammers suffer demotion, they will be forced to raise funds to cover the cost of dropping into the Championship.
Which Team Needs Jarrod Bowen Most?
Liverpool: There is a clear role for Bowen in Arne Slot's roster as a potential successor to Mohamed Salah.
Manchester United: Where exactly he would fit at Old Trafford is not so obvious. The Red Devils lack depth in most areas aside from Bowen's preferred right wing. If Amad Diallo is not deemed to be up to standard, Michael Carrick could turn to Bryan Mbeumo or even academy graduate Shea Lacey.
Chelsea: The Blues aren't short of wingers, but Bowen represents a different profile that Xabi Alonso may value. The Basque boss is thought to be prioritizing experience during a summer window.
Chelsea have not paid money for a player over the age of 25 since bringing in Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in 2022. Bowen has spent the past two seasons as West Ham's captain and would bring much-needed leadership to Stamford Bridge.
West Ham's Relegation Stars Circled by Rivals
Bowen likely won't be the only cherished asset West Ham are forced to sell this summer should they tumble through the division's trap door.
Mateus Fernandes has been in fine form and has captured the interest of Manchester United. The Guardian also cites Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain as potential suitors.
Crysencio Summerville is another figure destined for departure, while Taty Castellanos has done plenty during his five months at West Ham to prove himself worthy of another Premier League posting.
El Hadji Malick Diouf has threatened to be a cut above the collective standard at the London Stadium since his summer arrival and will also attract interest.
