West Ham close to agreeing deal with free agent defender
"West Ham United are still interested in signing Burnley defender CJ Egan-Riley, even amidst competition from other clubs and following a challenging season."
"The Hammers are considering Egan-Riley as a strategic signing, given his potential in the Championship and the need for strong recruitment post a disappointing performance."
"There's noted interest from other clubs, particularly Strasbourg, which could complicate West Ham's pursuit for the promising 22-year-old defender."
"Egan-Riley's potential move abroad might align with his ambitions, especially as a deal with Strasbourg could serve as a stepping stone to greater opportunities."
Despite a challenging season that left them 15th in the Premier League, West Ham United remains keen on acquiring Burnley defender CJ Egan-Riley. The club is looking to bolster their squad following a dismal performance under former manager Julen Lopetegui. Egan-Riley, at just 22, has shown great potential in the Championship this year and could address West Ham's defensive needs. However, competition from Strasbourg, where reports suggest he may have agreed to a five-year deal, poses a challenge to West Ham's recruitment efforts for young talent.
