Wolverhampton Wanderers is interested in signing Al-Nassr striker Jhon Duran during the summer window.
Columbia’s International is linked to the move to the Premier League, and it will be interesting to see if the new outfit can achieve the deal. According to a TeamTalk report, they will face competition with West Ham United.
The former Aston Villa Striker is a promising young talent with a bright future, and he has shown his abilities in the Premier League in the past. Before moving to Saudi Arabia, it was a very impressive experience for the West Midlands Club.
Duran is on track in Saudi Arabia
Duran scored 20 goals during his time at Aston Villa. He has found the back of the net in 12 times in 18 matches in Saudi outfits so far.
He is definitely a quality player with a bright future. The wolf is good to secure his signature. They need to add more quality and depth to their attacking units. They need reliable goal scorers, and South America certainly fits their profile.
West Ham is also enthusiastic about John Duran.
The opportunity to return to the Premier League may be exciting for young attackers. He should play at the highest level at this stage of his career. He has all the tools to develop into a reliable Premier League striker.
West Ham also needs quality strikers. The Niclas Fullkrug cannot meet expectations and must be replaced. Signing South America is a wise decision for the London Club.
However, the player earns £330,000 for a Saudi club, and his wages can complicate any move. Premier League clubs are rarely willing to pay such money to young people. He will need to take a massive salary cut to seal his return to the UK.
