West Ham United could have an offer to let a star who joined in the summer but has disappointed, leave this month, with an interested club ‘closely monitoring’ his situation.

The Hammers have just brought in Graham Potter as boss and he inherits a side that had a number of arrivals last summer, in the shape of the likes of Crysencio Summerville, Carlos Soler, Niclas Fullkrug and Jean-Clair Todibo.

Attacker Fullkrug has been unable to make much impact with injuries playing their part and question marks over his suitability for the Premier League raised by some.

He has managed just nine Premier League games so far and is being linked with a move away after just four months.

Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt have emerged as the latest club to be linked with a move for the 31-year-old.

According to German broadcaster Sky Deutschland, Eintracht Frankfurt have identified Fullkrug as an option in case they have to sell their in-form striker Marmoush.

The Egyptian has been linked with a move to Manchester City with reports emerging that a deal is close to being sealed.

Fullkrug though is not the only potential candidate to replace the 25-year-old with Mainz star Jonathan Burkardt and Rennes striker Arnaud Kalimuendo also being linked.

The Germans are though ‘closely monitoring’ Fullkrug’s situation at West Ham and he will also stay on their radar for the summer if they do not try for him now.
