If there’s one player whose awful form mirrors that of his club, West Ham United, it’s flop striker, Niclas Fullkrug.
When it was announced that West Ham would be signing Niclas Fullkrug from Borussia Dortmund, on the back of an excellent Euro 2024 tournament with Germany, you’d have been forgiven for thinking that the Premier League club were really going to go places in 2024/25.
Fifteen goals and 10 assists in 43 games for Dortmund (Calciomercato) spoke of a player that would quickly become an asset for Julen Lopetegui’s side.

However, in just a few short months it became clear that Fullkrug must be replaced, and the player himself is apparently very unhappy with how things have transpired at the East London outfit.
With the January transfer window now open for business, it would seem to be a foregone conclusion that the striker will move on, either permanently or on loan.

To that end, Calciomercato also note that Serie A giants Juventus are believed to have a serious interest in bringing the player to the Italian top-flight.
The report suggests that the Bianconeri are currently looking to replace Dusan Vlahovic, and despite links with Manchester United’s Joshua Zirkzee, the Dutchman is considered too expensive at this stage.

Seemingly over the injuries that have blighted his time at the London Stadium, Fullkrug will almost certainly jump at the chance to resurrect his fading career at Serie A’s ‘Old Lady.’
