West Ham United transfer saga sees Fullkrug exit and no bid for Czech striker Chory

West Ham United have confirmed that Niclas Fullkrug will not join the club as Venezia completed a £20 million signing of Nigerian forward Akor Adams, ending any pursuit of the former AC Milan loanee. The deal highlights West Ham’s aim to reduce the wage bill and focus on other targets.

The club also disclosed that it has made no bid or enquiry for Czech striker Tomas Chory, despite media speculation linking the 31‑year‑old Slavia Prague forward with the London Stadium. Instead, West Ham are exploring alternatives, including a possible loan for Arsenal youth prospect Jaden Dixon and interest in defender Axel Disasi. Captain Jarrod Bowen has reaffirmed his commitment to West Ham as the team prepares for a push for promotion.

These developments come as West Ham continue to reshape their squad ahead of the upcoming season, with further departures such as Callum Wilson and Crysencio Summerville also anticipated.
