Jarrod Bowen, the Hammers\u2019 beloved talisman, could leave the club at the end of the season.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A slew of top clubs in the Premier League have been credited with an interest in the 29-year-old. According to report from the Daily Mail, Liverpool, Everton and Newcastle United are all looking to snap Bowen up in the summer transfer window. <\/p>\n<p>They aren\u2019t the only ones, either. Previously, Football Insider reported that Chelsea are also interested in a move for the player, though they also note that he has \u2018no plans to leave\u2019 West Ham.<\/p>\n<p>Previously, a report from TEAMtalk back in February indicated that Manchester United would make Bowen their \u2018top summer target\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, if the Hammers are presented with enough money, his hands will be tied. Furthermore, these four clubs are not interested in West Ham\u2019s bid for Premier League survival \u2013 they will action a move for Bowen whether the Irons stay up or not.<\/p>\n<p>One has to believe, though, that Bowen\u2019s chances of leaving West Ham will escalate greatly if they cannot beat the drop. After losing to Arsenal at the weekend, their relegation could be all-but sealed. <\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Jarrod Bowen Premier League 2025\/26 season stats<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\">\n<table class=\"has-fixed-layout\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"\/>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Games<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Goals<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Assists<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Yellow cards<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Red cards<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Jarrod Bowen<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">36<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">8<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">10<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">4<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<p>It\u2019s easy to see why clubs are queuing up for a chance to acquire Bowen\u2019s services. He has been outstanding for West Ham this season \u2013 not only is he their top goalscorer, he\u2019s also top of the class in terms of assists. <\/p>\n<p>He is also their captain \u2013 to call him an important player would be a gross understatement. As such, West Ham will do everything in their power to keep him on board.<\/p>\n<p>He may well leave the club in the summer, but the Hammers have yet to slap a proverbial price tag on his head. He won\u2019t be cheap, given his importance to the club.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who would benefit the most from Bowen\u2019s arrival?<\/h2>\n<p>For us, a move to Newcastle United makes a lot of sense from Bowen\u2019s perspective. Culturally, they\u2019re a very similar club to the Hammers \u2013 they just happen to be situated at the other end of the country.<\/p>\n<p>That aside, the Magpies are in need of attacking reinforcements. Anthony Gordon may well leave the club in the summer \u2013 outside of him and Harvey Barnes, they are somewhat lacking in quality out wide.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, they have also struggled to find a consistent goalscorer up top. Bowen isn\u2019t a natural striker, but he can fill in the role and perform an admirable job on a consistent basis.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Everton are also suffering from dearth of quality in the wide positions. With Jack Grealish likely heading back to Manchester City in the summer, they could certainly use a player of Bowen\u2019s quality. <\/p>\n<p>At the other clubs mentioned, Bowen risks being lost in the mix. Chelsea\u2019s squad is enormous \u2013 furthermore, he doesn\u2019t really fit the bill that BlueCo are looking for. Likewise, Manchester United also have some excellent attacking options who won\u2019t want to be dropped to bench. <\/p>\n<p>As such, if we were Bowen\u2019s agent, we\u2019d angling for a move to Newcastle United or Everton. For now, however, Bowen remains a Hammer.<\/p>\n<p>      <!-- Article End -->\n    <\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>West Ham United, unfortunately, should have seen this coming.
