Arsenal, West Ham United 'given boost in Abdallah Sima pursuit'

Slavia Prague forward Abdallah Sima has reportedly indicated that he is keen on a move to the Premier League in a transfer boost for Arsenal and West Ham United.

The Senegal international has been touted as a target for the London pair after scoring 19 goals in all competitions for Slavia this season.

A number of teams across the continent were said to hold an interest in Sima during the January window, but the Czech side's £50m valuation was enough to put them off.

However, the Evening Standard claims that Slavia are now looking for a lower amount as Sima is eager to move on at the end of the campaign.

The 19-year-old's representatives have supposedly been in close contact with Arsenal and West Ham, while Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain may also be interested.

Arsenal face a big summer transfer window, with a number of players - including striker Alexandre Lacazette - facing uncertain futures on the back of a terrible 2020-21 for the club.
